Hi Matthias, Interesting remarks. You'll be interested to know that 'webifying' workflows (in various ways) is one of the prime interests of people at myGrid and myExperiment. My personal opinion, a bit from a biologist's perspective, is that we should be careful not to loose some aspects of workflows in our enthusiasm about Web 2.0 and wiki approaches. One of my main reasons for liking workflows is that they represent a publishable and reproducible 'protocol' similar to a wet laboratory protocol. This should not be volatile in any way, which Web2.0 or wiki approaches easily can be. NB Soon, also web services can be published via 'BioCatalogue', which is closely associated with myExperiment and with a semantic annotation model behind. Regards, Marco. Matthias Samwald wrote:
