[Dr-rg] Community Metadata process standards

[neil p chue hong]

Hi,

enjoyed the talks at this mornings session at OGF.

I thought the following piece of work might be interesting to add to the 
discusssion:

The CARMEN project from the UK has created something called MINI: 
Minimum Information about a Neuroscience Investigation.

"This framework represents the formalised opinion of the CARMEN 
consortium and its associates, and identifies the minimum reporting 
information required to support the use of electrophysiology in a 
neuroscience study, for submission to the CARMEN system. These 
guidelines are a work in progress and will evolve."

They identified that metadata collection was an issue, and have proposed 
a way this might be mitigated for their community.


chheers,
neil
