hi,

Does/should there exist a class similar to MIAME for sequencing data, e.g. slots
concerning the library preparation, alignment, etc.?

This could then be suggested as something to include in the exptData SimpleList
of SummarizedExperiment.


As it is one could certainly

If we want to go down this route then I think the right strategy would be to make the exptData slot more strict. But what would the MIAME-like container look like? The basics are probably shared, but what else?

> slotNames("MIAME")
 [1] "name"              "lab"               "contact"
 [4] "title"             "abstract"          "url"
 [7] "pubMedIds"         "samples"           "hybridizations"
[10] "normControls"      "preprocessing"     "other"
[13] ".__classVersion__"

best,
