Dear colleagues, dear members of the HUPO-PSI community, The HUPO Proteomics Standards Initiative (PSI) develops standards for documentation and storage of proteomics, glycomics and interaction data (see http://www.psidev.info for an overview of activities). The Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Informatics Working Groups have submitted a new recommendation for a PSI standard, the ProForma (Proteoform and Peptidoform Notation) version 2.1 specification. This version is an update of ProForma version 2.0 which was ratified in February 2022. This update adds some options to describe more complex peptidoforms and is heavily rewritten te remove ambiguities and provide a better overview for implementors. After having passed a 14-day review by two members of the PSI steering committee, who suggested minor changes, the proposed specification now goes through the*30-day public and external review, which should end on December 10th, 2025.* The version 2.1, draft 02 of the specification is attached to this e-mail. This message is to encourage you to contribute to the standards development activity by commenting on the document. We invite both positive and negative comments on the relevance, correctness, clarity and appropriateness of the specification (e.g. is it presented in accordance with the templates and clearly written, is it sufficiently detailed and comprehensively described and are the examples in agreement with the specification?). Comments can be made on the specification as a whole or on specific parts. If you do not feel experienced enough to comment on this document, but know colleagues who are, please feel free to forward this message to them. There is no requirement that people commenting should have had any prior contact with the PSI. *Please send comments by e-mail directly to syl...@un... before December 10th, 2025.* I thank you very much in advance for your contribution and time. Kind regards.
