myequivalents is a system to manage cross-references between entities that can be identified by pairs composed of a service name (e.g., EBI's ArrayExpress, Wikipedia) and an accession (e.g., E-MEXP-2514, Barack_Obama). For those familiar with the Semantic Web, we plan to support identification of entities via URIs and the owl:sameAs property. For those who already know MIRIAM and identifiers.org, myequivalents is more general than them and we plan to support these services in future.

Please, see this presentation before reading this guide.

##Current Status With respect to the slides mentioned above, at the moment the software has these limitations:

• only a basic service is implemented, only mappings that are explicitly stored can be fetched back, there is no code that implements closure over service collections.
• MIRIAM support is not available yet.
