19 +The main (or central) [[openMINDS GitHub repository>>https://github.com/HumanBrainProject/openMINDS||rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"]] ingests all these GitHub repositories as submodules. Furthermore it defines the openMINDS vocabulary (**##vocab##**) used for **##types##** and **##properties##** across all schemas independent of their original repository (cf. below). And last but not least, it holds the schema representations for all supported metadata formats created by the openMINDS integration pipeline (cf. below).

22 +For this to work smoothly for the existing, but also for all new openMINDS metadata models, the corresponding openMINDS submodules (GitHub repositories) have to meet the following requirements:

109 -In accordance with JSON-Schema, it is possible, though, to further define a selected list of built-in formats that are accepted for the expected string.

Assuming that my string property only accepts a value of format "email", the openMINDS syntax is the following:
111 +On the first level, the **##"type"##** of the expected property value needs to be defined. In principle, the openMINDS template syntax supports the same value types as JSON-Schema Draft 7.0, meaning:
