Gene Wiki projects unite!

Reading the article Gene Wiki conceptual overview posted at TSL on Nodalpoint some time ago, and looking in the proposal made there, I wonder if this is not already being done. There is the BOWiki Project. BOWiki extends a Semantic MediaWiki by additional functionality to allow the annotation of gene data and is supposed to allow the curation of biomedical ontologies as well. It makes heavy use of biomedical ontologies in the description of genes and gene functions, in order to allow a search of the wiki using the categories in the ontologies.
