[open-science] data repository primer?

Wed Oct 17 22:54:19 UTC 2012

All,

And more, but with a bioscience focus:
- http://www.biosharing.org/biodbcore (building on the catalogue of 
biostandards and linking databases that use them; work done with NAR 
database journal)
- http://www.neuinfo.org/ NIF portal
- http://bioinformatics.ca/links_directory Bioinformatics Links Directory
- http://biositemaps.ncbcs.org/ BioSitemaps

There are currently - to my knowledge - two projects working to produce a directory or registry of data repositories: i.e. a useful 'look-up service for researchers or research support staff wanting to know where given data might find an open and sustainable home.  These are:
