Re: [Psidev-ms-dev] mzData issues

Hiya. The viewer looks nice -- I got it to work with one of the 
example files (myo_full) and it is clean and simple. No need to 
RTFM  :)

On PIMS, I saw this first on a poster at BSPR and meant to 
follow up on a particular issue; are you aware of the FuGE 
project (fuge.sf.net)? The model will soon be at milestone 2 
(hopefully all of the issues sorted, and all the required 
functionality in). At least one other free LIMS-like system is 
implementing FuGE already (CPAS from the Fred Hutch CRC in 
Seattle) and maybe even a commercial firm I know of might switch 
to it once it is properly stable. I wonder if you have the 
person hours at your disposal to make PIMS able to im/export in 
FuGE? A big job, and maybe a bit over the top if you are seeking 
only to support your immediate user base but it would be cool 
(sharing/repositing workflows, third party tool accessibility etc.).

Another thing would be the (very new) FuGO project (ontology). 
This project needs contributors and in that respect I'm 
wondering how much of a controlled vocabulary you've accumulated 
in developing PIMS?

Cheers, Chris.

P.S. Where do you put stuff collected through PIMS -- do you 
have a bespoke repository? Is that public? Is it anything like 
this: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/ ?
