Please review the notes and forward any corrections to questions to 
Randy Julian

Please note that there is a prototype version of mzData which can be 
reviewed at:

Download the file "mzData_110.tgz" which contains a version of the 
mzData schema with the following features:

1. Organized like analysisXML (uses container types for expansion)
2. Backward compatible with 1.05.  Current mzData files should validate 
with the mzDataMaster.xsd schema
3. Added (optional) chromatographic objects to store TIC, SRM and MRM 
experimental data
4. Added (option) "experiment" description section which can be used to 
store instrument parameters which are currently repeated in each scan

The schema is still a work-in-progress and not ready for production, but 
represents one method for unifying the extension methods of mzData and 
analysisXML without breaking the existing format.

Send any feedback on this schema approach (and to analysisXML:

to Randy Julian.

Thanks!
