> A good while ago the idea was floated that we should change our name from
> our official title of the 'Working Group on Open Data in Science' (
> http://blog.okfn.org/2009/03/13/working-group-on-open-data-in-science/) to
> the 'Open Science Working Group' to reflect our expanding membership and
> broadening scope.
> 
> I think the time has come for this switch as it's reached the stage where
> Open Data in Science, while very much at the heart of the group, is by no
> means our sole focus anymore.
> 
> Most of our online presence is already using Open Science because it's
> shorter for URLs so this shouldn't cause too much confusion!
> 
> Does anyone have any objections?
