Interesting that it quotes MIAME (minimum information about a microarray 
experiment) as an example of community-driven standardisation. When MIAME 
was being formulated, it drew in part, and learned from, the history of the 
PDB.

It is also a field where (I am told) the raw data really are useless without 
metadata about the experiment.

Peter.
