Re: [dddwg] Jrh reprint

Hello Andy,
Aha, well, I am willing to take at face value:-
"With the adoption of the Digital Single Markets strategy on 6 May 2015, the Commission announced the launch of a cloud for research data – the ‘research open science cloud'."
rather than declare:-
"it is still very much a pipe dream with no clear boundaries or goals"
which seems to me unduly harsh.
And, I also imagine that the Zenodo initiative and expansion of capability that I alerted dddwg to this morning are together firm intent.

I will however in future for sure turn to you to compare my interpretation of Euro initiatives with yours.

Greetings,
John

Hi John,

nice paper with a good case for publishing raw data. One paragraph caught my eye which was:

In a wider context, the European Open Science Cloud (https://ec.europa.eu/research/openscience/index.cfm?pg=open-science-cloud) is providing tools and guidelines for ‘Open Science’ for a Crowd sourcing of solutions to urgent societal problems including health challenges.

As far as I know the EOSC does not exist (yet) and there are no tools available nor guidelines. From my following of the EOSC it is still very much a pipe dream with no clear boundaries or goals. You might want to fix this in your article.

Kind regards

Andy

Dear Colleagues,
I incorporated my ECM 30 Education Microsymposium talk content in an article marking the distinguished career of Dr Alex Wlodawer:-
 I hope that my writing about the new opportunities in all areas of crystallographic education based on enhanced data archiving will be of wide interest.

All best wishes
