• , it was developed as an open-source project. Therefore, newly funded projects such as UniCarb-DB [37] or the latest version of GlycoBase (Dublin) [25], which stores HPLC data, are able to make use of the EUROCarbDB source code and, thus, the software does not need to be rewritten. The CFG databases

• disconnected islands. Furthermore, funding for the maintenance of existing databases is required to keep useful resources up-to-date, rather than only funding new projects. The open-source idea can also help to partly overcome this dilemma. If the data and source codes that have been developed in a project are
