"In the emerging data web, there have been multiple efforts working towards the same broad goal of data sharing (ie., the NeuroCommons, Linked Open Data, efforts of the World Wide Web Consortium), but are still unevenly distributed. Our understanding of the legal, social and technical issues is increasing, but still is at a very early stage."
