Re: [Myexperiment-discuss] Workflow fact sheet for OAI

[Simon Coles]

OAI schema / profiles are a very difficult and messy area and take a 
long time to come to a community consensus. e-Bank has been working on a 
data schema for OAI for some time now. Please see

http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/projects/ebank-uk/schemas/

for our output on this. There should be high level overlap that will 
allow dissemination and discovery at a domain level.

If we are going to be talking workflows then maybe it would be useful to 
have an e-Bank - myExperiment meeting?
