Description

I still can't get my head around why we have so much duplication of data sources in `org.bridgedb.bio` vs `org.bridgedb.rdf`:
- https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDb/blob/master/org.bridgedb.bio/resources/org/bridgedb/bio/datasources.txt
- https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDb/blob/master/org.bridgedb.rdf/resources/BioDataSource.ttl
- https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDb/blob/master/org.bridgedb.rdf/resources/DataSource.ttl
- https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDb/blob/master/org.bridgedb.rdf/resources/IdentifiersOrgDataSource.txt
- https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDb/blob/master/org.bridgedb.rdf/resources/IdentifiersOrgDataSource.ttl
- https://github.com/bridgedb/BridgeDb/blob/master/org.bridgedb.rdf/resources/MiriamRegistry.ttl

Fixing a data source name, URI pattern or system code in any one of these files seems to require editing all the others.

This means it is basically impossible to edit.

What is the point of this duplication?
