Please note that we are slowly trying to move developer documentation off of the main Protege Web site and onto this Wiki.  We feel that this will better serve the community as users will (hopefully) make contributions and corrections to our body of documentation.<br /><br />

'''Please note that this documentation refers *only* to the Protege 3.x series. For Protege 4, 5 and higher, please visit the links available [[Main_Page#Developer_Documentation|here]].'''
Because the migration of documentation to the Wiki is ongoing, you should also check the main Protege Web site for Protege 3 developer documentation: http://protege.stanford.edu/doc/dev.html.
