+This projects provides a visualization for ontologies in the style of OBO-Edit.
+It's a standalone library and provides a Protégé plugin
+
+# OBO Graph View #
+
+This ontology visualization is based on the OBO-Edit code. It was extracted and modified to use the OWL-API.
+Furthermore, it can be used in any Java Swing application.
+
+# Protégé PlugIn #
+
+The plugin is tested and developed with Protégé Version 4.1 and 4.2 (beta).
+For more help on Protégé see [Protégé Documentation](http://protegewiki.stanford.edu/wiki/Protege4UserDocs)
+
+## Installation as Protégé PlugIn ##
+Download the latest version from the [Downloads](http://code.google.com/p/obographview/downloads/list) tab.
+
+Unzip the archive file. There should be one file: **org.geneontology.view.protege.jar**
+
+Copy this jar file in the plugins folder of your Protégé installation.
+
+The Plugin is a View Component, it can be a component of any tab in Protégé. To include it in a tab navigate to:
+
+Window -> Views -> Ontology Views -> OBO Graph View Component
+
+This will create a new component, which can be dropped in an appropriate position in the Protégé tab.
+The recommended tab is the 'Classes' tab.
+
+## Usage ##
+
+To start the rendering, click on the **Synchronize View** button.
+
+The plugin requires a reasoner and will warn you, if there is no up-to-date reasoner instance available.
+
+Selections in the Class hierarchy are reflected in the visualization. A selection will update the rendered nodes.
