SRI has released the OWL-S Editor, a Protege plug-in providing an environment for creating and editing OWL-S service descriptions. It features:

• Visual drag and drop composite process editor.
• Graphical overview of the main parts of the OWL-S ontology. See how your Service/Process/Profile/Grounding instances relate to one another.
• WSDL Import. Generate a skeletal OWL-S description automatically from a WSDL file.
• Developed as a plugin to Protege, so it is easy to browse the domain ontologies that your OWL-S services use.
• Supports ALL properties of OWL-S.
• Loads existing OWL-S descriptions, making it easy to get an overview of complicated service structures and process models.

This is an alpha release (Mozilla Public License) and more features and documentation are being developed.
