Q: Can you talk about if/how the production and hosting workflow might incorporate and leverage semantic tagging or taxonomies to improve things like search filtering or building collections?
At the moment we don't have anything that does this. If you wanted to, you could create a new activity that parsed the article XML and that exposed the semantics you were interested in. This would then need to be placed into a workflow by extending the workflow definition. There is no requirement for the main logic of the activity to run inside of the elife-bot, as long as an activity step can trigger, or make a call to the service that is doing the semantic tagging.
