This recent post from Cameron Craddock on the Organization for Human Brain
Mapping blog is related to this question:
http://www.ohbmbrainmappingblog.com/blog/ohbm-open-science-special-interest-group-sig
(and related to the article - thanks for posting it!)

"Brainhacking 101" mentioned in this post is based on Data Carpentry
