[DAS] Chance for non-workshop attendees

[Jonathan Warren]

The DAS workshop is being held in 3 weeks time.
As a chance for people not attending to put their opinions forward I  
thought I would email the current list of suggestions for Day 3 topics.
This also should give the chance for attendees to consider topics  
before the event so they may have more informed opinions.

The list of suggested topics is below. Those who suggested the topic  
may or may not want to flush them out with some more details to the  
list ?
A big topic looks to be alternative content to xml to enable faster  
transfer of data ( I would like for us to come up with some strategy  
for implementing this at the workshop).

Content negotiation and efficient data formats
how / if the big amounts data can be served via das
DAS for high-density quantitative data.
Google Proto Buffers?
1: From molecules to sets. 2: Other dimensions: Samples.
Writing a DAS client in C
Running DAS on amazon or google app engine. And seeing what changes  
have to be made to the dazzle code to enable this. I'd favour app  
engine.
