A lot of the goals/problems mentioned in the document can be solved with a "lab notebook" consisting of plain text files plus Git version control. For example: > Legal document to prove patents and defend your data against accusations of fraud > Bound/Stitched | No lost pages, legally stronger | Difficult to copy, not logically organized > Requires electronic security, corrupted files, software compatibility issues > No pages come out of the notebook | Do not take any pages out or remove any data | Do not skip pages in your notebook | Cross out any unused parts of a page > Correct mistakes, do not remove them | Cross out mistakes with a single line | Paste in corrections without covering anything | Sign and date all corrections Also, if you sign your commit hashes with a trusted timestamping service, then that could serve as watertight evidence of prior work.
