-Sounds good!
-> What file formats should we be ready to receive?
-Some flat file format would be good to have, but I think there is no
-general agreement on how these large resequencing files should be
-formatted. I have a MSc student with whom we are beginning to think
-about such a format. We are investigating the possibility to have some
-xml coded file, that would be efficient for resequencing data, but we
-are still in the first development phase.
-> How should we suggest to contributors to code their sequence data (nt
-> letters or numbers), to code missing bases.......?  Etc.
-I guess it would be most useful if sequences would be grouped by
-population, with info on:\\
-Sequence region (chromosomic region)
-Sequence begin
-Sequence length
-Population where it was sequenced
-Individual in which it was sequenced
-Geographic coordinate of the population or of the individual
-Linguistic group or language family of the individual or population
-Tag indicating is sequence phase has been inferred, with pointer to the
-other complementary sequence
-Nucleotide should be coded as ACGT, and ? for missing data (which makes
-intuitive sense), otherwise common letters for ambiguous nucleotide
-assignment
-> What other questions should I be asking you in order to set up a
-> sequence db that will be useful to scientists in the field of human
-> population genetics.
-Some information on whether it is coding sequence or not, with the start
-of the coding region, would be nice to have. Some link to some other
-data base (e.g. ensembl) where additional information can be found would
-be nice as well.
-> I think that CEPH should be concerned with managing and maintaining
-> the sequences in the db and not with computing various parmeters of
-> polymorphism, diversity etc. from them, which most of th panel users
-> are capable of doing.
-Yes, you are right, but some summary statistics could be useful to
-compute.\\
-It would also be nice to be able to extract, say all sequences or
-polymorphism in a given chromosomal region.\\
-Cheers

-Hi Heidi,\\
-please have a look at the following paper and program...
-[[http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/links/doi/10.1111/j.1471-8286.2007.02036.x]]
-It would be worth looking at...\\
-cheers
