I joined that group recently, after we had rolled out ORCID to academic and research staff at Imperial College.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

and manuscripts to institutional systems from the publishers. ORCID iDs would be very useful in linking “author identities” on the publisher systems to “research identities” on institutional systems.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It’s also worth noting that ORCID is one of the few organisations that has adopted a set of governance and operations principles. The point of these principles was to do two things: seek to have representative governance (which is hard
to achieve but good to work towards) and make it possible in principle to fork the entire project.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It’s not perfect by any means. One could quibble about the makeup of the board (not enough researcher representatives, not enough geographic spread) the frequency of data dumps, the decisions about exactly what goes in the member’s SLA-backed
API and what in the public one. But overall it does a pretty good job of being transparent and open at the same time (plenty do one or the other, very few do both).<o:p></o:p></p>

What code is open source? I'm not aware of any code out there that <br>
would allow users to make parallel installations of ORCID. <br>

<br>
It is. But I think we can all agree that it is not an open <br>
access system. <br>
