Hi Micha,


>I have just finished writing one. The user uploads a zip file, a new
directory is created in the user's raw data directory (with >the same name
as the zip file) and the files are then unzipped in there. They are then
imported one by one as new

Base 2 has plans to have tab2mage import (importing experiments and
associated files) see Ticket #338  on base2 trac
http://base.thep.lu.se/ticket/338 system, and your zip file loader would
certaily help to in importing experiments from repositories and doing other
interesting stuff. We have this on our do list and would certainly
appreciate if you can share the code with us to help in this process.

Also, do you have plans to extend the functionality to non-affy data too?

Thanks and hope to read from you.

Dominic
