[Treebase-devel] Open Provenance

[Hilmar L. <hl...@ne...>]

I don't know whether this has been considered already in the past, but  
it certainly seems relevant to TreeBASE, more so than ever with the  
analysis steps annotation that is now required from depositors - it  
looks to me that this might essentially be the standard for exposing  
them.

BTW there is a summer student internship project sponsored by DataONE  
on data provenance:

Bertram Ludäscher wanted a phylogenetics-oriented use-case too, and it  
seems to me like the analysis steps that connect input data with  
alignment and output tree could be a great example.
