Re: [Psidev-ms-dev] Converting MS data into a XML format that comply with the PSI-MS schema

[Kai R. <kr...@eb...>]

Dear Troels,

the PSI-MS format contains not only the peak-list, but also additional=20=

information related to this experiment, such as instrument settings,=20
information on the precursor, administrative information such as user=20
name and information on the software that was processing this data.
We presented a converter with graphical user interface at the HUPO=20
conference in Montreal. However, due to many suggestions we received we=20=

changed the format and are now in the process of updating the=20
converter. This converter will in the beginning support only simple=20
formats such .dta and .pkl files, but will be continuously extend to=20
support more formats (we did a survey of what formats are commonly used=20=

and will work down this list). A first beta-release should be available=20=

around January/February and a release shortly after. Please check at=20
http://psi-dev.sf.net for news around this time.

Thanks
	Kai

Real cats don't need names.
But they often get called them.
"Yaargeroffoutofityarbastard" does nicely.
