metadata
Hi Anders and Simon,
An idea we had (our university is going crazy about research data management) is to let PAM check when a user opens a file, whether necessary metadata is actually present. If not, a popup is opened where user has to fill this is. This info is then stored as a text file next to the datafile.
For the user, it'd be a matter of filling in the text file while measuring, so that PAM can just find it.
This would be a better way than:
- writing the missing metadata in the filename itself
- having to manually save the metadata in pam, which admitted, no one does
what do you think?
