[open-science] OFA Article on "Bottom-up creation of Open Scientific Knowledge"

Thu Jan 10 09:36:26 UTC 2013

Wow!
We now need an OKFN Etherpad or wiki or Googledocs to collect or ideas.
Volunteer?

I've mailed Shane @ OFA to tell hime we are having a football team approach
and asking for page limits.

I think the best way will be to put our ideas down and then try to pick out
communalities.
