After revision:  These requirements were developed within a working group of the Electrophysiology Task Force in the INCF Program on Standards for Data Sharing . While this document describes the requirements of the standard independent of the actual storage technology, the Task Force has recommended basing a standard on HDF5. This is in line with a number of groups who are already using HDF5 to store electrophysiology data, although currently without being based on a standard .
