I am happy to report that videos of all the presentations anddiscussions during the recent Workshop on "Metadata for rawdata from X-ray diffraction and other structural techniques"are now available through the workshop web page at
     http://www.iucr.org/resources/data/dddwg/rovinj-workshop
The event, graciously described by one participant as "aninspiring workshop on what was nominally a rather dry subject",gathered over 20 experts to critically review the centralimportance of detailed metadata to proper scientific practice.It also considered the challenges of acquiring, sharing andvalidating high-quality metadata, especially in the age ofhigh-throughput 'Big Data' experiments; and the best approachesto interoperability amongst diverse workflows, file formats andgranularity of descriptive ontologies.
This archive will serve to provide a comprehensive review of thestate of the art of metadata definition and use across many ofthe scientific fields using X-ray crystallographic and relatedstructural techniques.
