[open-science] data repository primer?

Wed Oct 17 14:06:52 UTC 2012

Hi all,
if you go here http://www.biosharing.org/standards_view and query (top 
right box) for *imaging *you will see few results.
BioSharing catalogue is work in progress, so bear with us, but we keep 
adding (community) standards and improves searches and classifications 
also in collaboration with the BioPortal team.
Thanks,
Susanna

Mostly it was presentations of research results, but we also had a long general meeting about the model, its development, and (mostly) the need for related tools and infrastructures. One topic was the need for better data sharing and management: we currently tend to physically ship a lot of physical hard drives after searching our social networks for folks with needed datasets. One response is to start a torrent network, but we also need ways/places to archive (preferably searchably). I gave a quick OTTOMH talk about some repository options which I'm aware (pangaea.de, figshare.com, thedatahub.org) and gave props to OKF.

(Evangelism is OK too: while definitely international, this is a mostly-US group which is generally unexposed to open-science norms.)
