Encoding type for anndata objects is "AnnData", which isn't how anndata does it #12

ivirshup commented 2 years ago

Compatibility issue, was just making some little examples for the anndata release candidate (out now btw), and noticed a discrepancy in how we label anndata objects.

In anndata, I've labelled AnnData objects as encoding-type: "anndata", since every other encoded type has a lowercase name. Here, it's "AnnData".

We should probably agree on one. Thoughts?

My proposal is that we normalize to lowercase, but I'll register the capitalized "AnnData" for encoding-version: "0.1.0".

I am fine with going with the lowercase.
