Steve, We are consumers of data from a resource we don't have control over. Getting that resource on Globus would be wonderful though,
It's the Human Microbiome Project. http://www.hmpdacc.org/resources/data_browser.php/ They provide public FTP and HTTP download, getting them in as a public data source on GO would do the community a lot of good.
