I liked the work done by an MIT undergrad, Brian

Capsule File System (undergraduate thesis, June 1995), under the
guidance of Alan Bawden. Available on his web site and at MIT through
your favorite search engine.
I say "liked" because nothing seems to have come of it in the last 20

When the AI lab archived their tapes, John used .tap, so not even MIT AI
ended up using it (which was what TCFS was intended for).
Extending .tap, for all its warts, seems more likely to gain traction.
