Tranche project adopts OA data protocol

The Tranche Project (from Proteome Commons) is the first I've seen to adopt the Protocol for Implementing Open Access Data from Science Commons.  (Thanks to bbgm.) 

The Tranche Project uses hashes to insure that a dataset to which you link hasn't changed since you last consulted it.
