Hi,
We don’t have separate lists of all the files in each package for every
subject.  This seems to be a bigger request that we initially appreciated,
so the Informatics group will likely have to give some thought if this is
something they want to support.

cheers,
-MH

yes -- indeed -- it was probably the main reason for a bit of disconnect
in our
dialog since I have misused the term of a "package" which is indeed
provided
per each subject separately and "bundle" would have been a proper term.
I will try to use correct terms (package vs bundle) appropriately from now
on
;)

choices (as in the interface) are indeed distinct but not entirely
independent.

With my cleared up understanding of the terminology, question remains -- is
there a list of files per each package (per each subject) which you use to
generate packages from individual files?  or that is the information
contained
within XNAT schema used underneath (so it could may be queried instead)?

yes. That would be great.

yeap.   that is why having lists of those files per each package could be
of
benefit.  Could as well be located e.g. under packages/ "subfolder"
within each subject folder on S3 bucket, e.g. for

./100307/analysis_s12/100307_3T_tfMRI_EMOTION_analysis_s12.zip

there could be files like

./100307/packages/3T_tfMRI_EMOTION_analysis_s12.list

containing

100307/.xdlm/100307_3T_tfMRI_EMOTION_analysis_s12.json
100307/MNINonLinear/Results/tfMRI_EMOTION/tfMRI_EMOTION_hp200_s12_level2.f

do you see it feasible?

Thank you in advance for your informative replies!
