Thanks for the link to FAIRport, I wasn’t aware of that at all. I do
notice Peter Wittenburg is named (along with a few others) on their home
page 🙂
From the FAIR data principles I see the “(meta) Data” statements as
somewhat along the lines of my suggestion, but both are probably vague
enough that it’s hard to tell if they’re talking about the same thing or
not. I did find Mark’s presentation here:
http://www.slideshare.net/markmoby/force11-jddcp-workshop-presentation-4…
describing FAIR Profiles in some detail; this seems to be tackling a
different problem of coming to a common way to describe different kinds
of metadata to support inter-repository querying.
