Not many realize how hard it was to get the six major instrument vendors to make their data files accessible. Parag definitely pushed for it early. When we ran into complexities of establishing a legal entity to sign the agreements, he established the Proteowizard Software Foundation.

Parag got many of us on board and made data accessibility a true community project. Involving labs like Dave Tabb's, companies like Insilicos, and our lab. We should be building on each others development efforts. From the start, Skyline has been part of the Proteowizard repo by design.
