[BEP044] Stim-BIDS Second Call for Comments, Please review by April 30th

[Seyed Yahya Shirazi]

The Stim-BIDS Extension Proposal (BEP044) offers a structured approach to organizing, referencing, and annotating stimulus files within BIDS datasets. This BEP addresses the need for a standardized method to standardize stimulus files and their annotations.

Key features of the proposal include:

* A standardized structure for the `/stimuli` directory
* Introduction of `stimuli.tsv/json` for listing and describing stimulus files
* Support for both still and time-varying stimulus annotations
* Compatibility with existing BIDS events files
* Enhanced FAIR principles for stimulus sharing

The full proposal is available for review at:

* Pull Request: https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-specification/pull/2022
* HTML Preview: https://bids-specification--2022.org.readthedocs.build/en/2022/modality-specific-files/stimuli.html
* Example Implementation: https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-examples/pull/433
