Elaborating upon some prior informal discussions we have had - would it be worthwhile to have something like a XML-absorb program that would attempt to read in data stored in other known formats, and then populate as much of the XML header information as possible from the various headers for those known formats? If appropriately planned and modularized, this absorb program could be enlarged whenever we or somebody else encounters a new data and header format. In its most basic form, you might add critical fields directly through a GUI for data in unknown or raw formats. If it encounters GE formats, it might read in the GE header and then fill out as much as possible of the XML header fields, and the same for other known formats. Comments?
