Data packages repository

This is a repository to store the nipy data packages.

The packages get served via the gh-pages branch of this repository.

To add a data package:

• add the package as a .tar.gz archive to the gh-pages branch;
• update index.html to add the archive to the web page list.

To update a package:

• add the package as a .tar.gz archive to the gh-pages branch;
• edit index.html to update the archive name on the web page list.

Please make sure that any package that gets uploaded to github, remains in exactly that state, or gets deleted (if the package contains data that should not have been released).

If you want to edit the packages, change the version number and therefore the file-name.

To create a new package, see the nipy-examplepkg directory. This contains the layout for a data package in the format that nipy uses. If you are thinking of making a new data package to work with nipy, this is a good place to start.
