Two Graph 'Modes' in Ceryle

One of the major design concepts about Ceryle that is probably not apparent deserves a bit of elucidation. Ceryle is for two very interrelated things, with different purposes and processes. One is the organization of research materials and the ontologies used for that purpose. Ceryle is secondly for designing or organizing a story/narrative/document. These two processes are very intertwined during the development of a text/narrative/document, but each deserve an approach to design, editing, visualization, etc. appropriate to the process at hand.

On the development side, I don't know why I didn't do this before (actually, I do: I was distracted), but I finally substituted Xerces 2.5.0 for 1.4.3 in the ./xindice/java/lib directory. Wonder of the world, my CastClassException on DeferredElementImpl has suddenly went away, and you can now change 'x-cnotes.html' back to its expected default of 'cnotes.html' and the Notes functionality all works.
