Gregory's Server@lettosprey Has been interesting to watch science adopt, and then drop, XML as a format. At the moment, if you want data exchange it will come as a CSV file, with the first line containing the variable names of the columns. Mostly driven by the lack of fuss in reading the file on whatever system you use.

 @oddhack @lettosprey That's to cherry-pick astronomy. Some fields have formats particular to their needs. But often if you break open systems which use that format you'll often find CSV files for temporary data. |
@glent @lettosprey people rejected FITS?
