+ <h1 class="title">Ontology Manager</h1>
+ <p>The Stanbol Ontology Manager provides a controlled environment for managing ontologies, ontology networks and user sessions for semantic data modeled after them. It provides full access to ontologies stored into the Stanbol persistence layer.</p>
+<h2 id="restful_api">RESTful API</h2>
+<p>Stanbol OntoNet implements the API section for managing OWL and OWL2 ontologies, in order to prepare them for consumption by reasoning services, refactorers, rule engines and the like. Ontology management in ONM is sparse and not connected: once loaded internally from their remote locations, ontologies live and are known within the realm they were loaded in. This allows loose-coupling and (de-)activation of ontologies in order to scale the data sets for reasoners to process and optimize them for efficiency. The following concepts have been introduced with the ONM:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>
+<p>Ontology scope: a "logical realm" for all the ontologies that encompass a certain CMS-related set of concepts (such as "User", "ACL", "Event", "Content", "Domain", "Reengineering", "Community", "Travelling" etc.). Scopes never inherit from each other, though they can load the same ontologies if need be.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Ontology space: an access-restricted container for synchronized access to ontologies within a scope. The ontologies in a scope are loaded within its set of spaces. An ontology scope contains: (a) exactly one core space, which contains the immutable set of essential ontologies that describe the scope; (b) exactly one (possibly empty) custom space, which extends the core space according to specific CMS needs (e.g. the core space for the User scope may contains alignments to FOAF); (c) zero or more session spaces, which extend the custom space with additional models provided by end-users (e.g. the set of individuals that 'populate' a scope may be fed to OntoNet via a session space). Session spaces are mapped one-to-one with KReS sessions (see below).</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>OntoNet session: a container of session spaces for all affected scopes, for stateful management of ontology networks. It is not equivalent to an HTTP session (since it can live persistently across multiple HTTP sessions), although its behaviour can reflect the one of the HTTP session that created it, if required by the implementation.</p>

+ <h1 class="title">Ontology Registry Manager</h1>
+ <p>Registry management is a facility of the Ontology Manager that allows Stanbol <strong>administrators</strong> to pre-configure sets of ontologies that Stanbol should load and store, or simply be aware of, <strong>before</strong> they are included in a part of the ontology network (e.g. a scope or session). Via the registry manager, it is possible to configure whether these ontologies should be loaded immediately when Stanbol is initialized, or only when explicitly requested. The Ontology Registry Manager is essentially an ontology bookmarker with caching support. It is also possible to cache multiple versions of the same ontology if needed.</p>
+<h2 id="glossary">Glossary</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>A <strong>Library</strong> is a collection of references to ontologies.</li>
+<li>A <strong>Registry</strong> is an RDF resource (i.e. an ontology itself) that describes one or more libraries. It is the physical object that has to be accessed to gain knowledge about libraries.</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="usage_scenarios">Usage Scenarios</h2>
+<p>TODO</p>
+<h2 id="configuration">Configuration</h2>
+<p>Ontology registries (and, by extension, the libraries they reference) are configured by the Stanbol administrator via the Felix Web console.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Go to the <a href="http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr">Felix console Configuration Manager</a> and select <strong>Apache Stanbol Ontology Registry Manager</strong> (or follow this <a href="http://localhost:8080/system/console/configMgr/org.apache.stanbol.ontologymanager.registry.impl.RegistryManagerImpl">direct link</a>)</li>
+<li>Under <strong>Registry locations</strong> you can add or remove the physical URIs of ontology registries, i.e. RDF resources that contain knowledge about ontology libraries.</li>
+<li>If you wish all the registry contents to be loaded altogether on startup, uncheck the <strong>lazy ontology loading</strong> box.</li>
+<li>You can select one <strong>Caching policy</strong> between Centralised (default) and Distributed. In centralised caching, all the libraries that reference an ontology with the same URI will share the very same version of that ontology. In distributed caching, each library will reference its own version of each ontology. Centralised caching is generally recommended, as distributed caching allows multi-version ontology management, but occupies much more storage space, depending on the amount of ontologies in common.</li>
