Obligatory Reading of the Day: Cameron Neylon on Open Science

Policy for Open Science - reflections on the workshop:

One thing that was very clear to me was that the attendees of the meeting were largely disconnected from the more technical community that reads this and related blogs. We need to get the communication flowing in both directions - there are things the blogosphere knows, that we are far ahead on, and we need to get the information across. There are things we don't know much about, like the legal frameworks, the high level policy discussions that are going on. We need to understand that context. It strikes me though that if we can combine the strengths of all of these communities and their differing modes of communication then we will be a powerful force for taking forward the open agenda.
