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:

36	36	Although, as the file extension suggests, this openMINDS schema template syntax is inspired by JSON-Schema, it facilitates or even excludes technical aspects that are generally expected for the openMINDS schemas making them more human-readable, especially for untrained eyes. Behind the scenes, within the openMINDS integration pipeline (cf. below), this schema template syntax is then interpreted and flexibly translated to various formal metadata formats (e.g., JSON-Schema).
