We have been working away in the background on buggota, and this coming Friday we are planning on taking down conntoea for about three hours while we rearrange the database. We expect to go down at about 10pm EST in order to minimize disruption of service.

The basic database unit in connotea is a bookmark and each individual url bookmarked in connotea creates a bookmark. We are going to introduce an abstract article element and join bookmarks with similar pmid or doi to an article entity. This will go someway to cleaning up the connotea database. I’ll post more details later this week.
