Recommendations from the AgBioData GFF3 working group

Over a year ago, AgBioData convened a discussion on GFF3 formatting issues, led by Scott Cain. This discussion led us to form the AgBioData GFF3 working group. 
Our goals are to:
1) identify common problems with the GFF3 format; 
2) recommend solutions for these problems; and 
3) promote community adoption of these recommendations, so that data can be formatted in standard ways across databases. 
Members of AgBioData, the Alliance of Genome Resources, and NCBI have been working on these goals for the past year. We are now ready to receive feedback from the AgBioData community on our recommendations, in order to get traction on the final goal – community adoption of these solutions.  

In this webinar, we will give an overview of our recommendations and will open up the floor for a stimulating discussion. If possible, please review our recommendations prior to the webinar: https://docs.google.com/document/d/180g1rfC5n_cR6sioG_LFGaUPNmQyDqTsPafVu4gM018
