To make users more aware of open file formats, validity, and if archives allow these file types, I (and a group of research supporting people) would like these things shown as extra columns for every list of files. But as we don’t have a magic wand (though we have some coding experience among us), we’re looking at part of the workflow where many files are first stored, and that for many of us and the thousands of researchers we support, is a websystem built on ownCloud.
These ideas and some very related ones are further described on https://github.com/steltenpower/FAIRfilesListing
Can you give us hints on where to start for implementing this?
And as what I type at this very moment probably results in a URL, is that what I should share to people that I know might help, or should I wait for an issue URL on github, or something else even?
