[Open-access] FOSsil Bank Update - 22 September 2013

Sun Sep 22 03:21:30 UTC 2013

Hi folks,

Back to more regular updates!
Brief Survey

I didn't get a lot of responses to the first question last time, so if you
missed it please tackle it for me:

*What is stopping you from contributing to FOSsil Bank?
*When I set up the FOSsil Bank, I expected members of the community to
contribute to the catalogue. After a few years, about 99% of the 1000+
entries were added by me. I don’t resent this, but I’d like to get more
involvement from others.
