These are issues that the SWAN/Alzforum project team has been
thinking about for a number of years and that have informed our
approach to designing SWAN. We believe that in order for community
curation to succeed, the user community (in our case,
neurodegenerative disease researchers) hav
I think there are two issues in a suspicion of distributed curation:
1. Wanting curation to be good before publication, rather than "it will
become good eventually with enough people looking at it".
2. The perceived need to control what appears as the community view.
Feedback from the comunity
I would like to get some feedback on the feasibility of distributed
curation.
Me too!
PIs who have years of experience in managing curation
projects are not that enthusiastic about its role. It seems the CS
community is all for it but the actual *users* havent really bought
in.
Are there a

Hello folks,
It appears that I forgot to put the URL in that last email about the
pathguide: http://www.pathguide.org
Well, since I've already managed to embarrass myself publicly, I
figure I might as well introduce myself formally.
My name is Jeremy Zucker, and I am a bioinformatics s
Hi folks,
One resource that is likely to be of use in the pathway space is
the pathguide:
It has detailed statistics about the size of each database and other
metadata for about 222 biological pathway databases.
This is the target space for conversion to BioPAX.
Sincerely,
Jeremy
