[open-science] A Public List of Notable, Senior Open Scientists

Tue May 7 18:23:01 UTC 2013

My first thought was that you don't have to nominate… just add the person to the spreadsheet, and perhaps add a column called "comments" in which you can add comments.

However, I just noticed the spreadsheet is "view" only, so I guess we have to nominate unless the spreadsheet is made editable.
