The cycle of data use by a researcher generally includes exploration, database construction, data reduction, algorithm and analysis code development, documentation, informal exchange, and archiving. While some of these tasks are best facilitated and managed by large data centers, other aspects may be simplified by the use of the informal practices and tools that are an integral part of open source software development. We present our experience in the development and use of a space science time series data set that employs some of these practices. The data set has over 1000 time series from a diverse set of sources that include CISM, DMI, FMI, ISGI, NSSDC, NGDC, and SEC, along with data sets from individual scientists. Based on this experience, we propose a system that would enable the open source development model to gain wide use by individual researchers.
