two important attributes in which they differ from traditional models: openness and communication time
-
increased openness and shorter communication time happens already in publishing industry (via Open Access movement and experiments with alternative/shorter ways of peer-review)
-
diagram of the “methods” sections from experimental (including bioinformatics analyses) publications
-
“open notebook science” which means conducting research using publicly available, immediately updated laboratory notebook
-
not only scientists – there are librarians, science communicators, editors from scientific journals, people working in biotech industry

-
prevent “freeloaders” from being able to use Open material and not contribute back to the open community
-
presumption in this view is that a license is a good, or at least acceptable, way of achieving both these goals
-
worried by the potential for licensing to make it harder to re-use and re-mix disparate sets of data and content into new digital objects
-
Explicit statements of the status of data are required and we need effective technical and legal infrastructure to make this easy for researchers.
-
“Where a decision has been taken to publish data deriving from public science research, best practice to enable the re-use and re-purposing of that data, is to place it explicitly in the public domain via {one of a small set of protocols e.g. cc0 or PDDL}.”
-
describing this as best practice it also allows deviations that may, for whatever reason, be justified by specific people in specific circumstances

The Open Bioinformatics Foundation or O|B|F is a non profit, volunteer run organization focused on supporting open source programming in bioinformatics. The foundation grew out of the volunteer projects BioPerl, BioJava and BioPython and was formally incorporated in order to handle our modest requirements of hardware ownership, domain name management and funding for conferences and workshops.The Foundation does not participate directly in the development or structure of the open source work, but as the members of the foundation are drawn from the member projects, there is clear commonality of direction and purpose. Occasionally the O|B|F directors may make announcements about our direction or purpose (a recent one was on the licensing of academic software) when the board feels there is a need to clarify matters, but in general we prefer to remain simply the administrative support organization for our member projects. Our main activities are: * Underwriting and supporting the BOSC conferences * Organizing and supporting developer-centric "hackathon" events * Managing our servers, colocation facilities, bank account & other assets We are incorporated in the state of Delaware, USA as a not-for-profit company.

Science Commons’ experience in distributing a database licensing Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) file
-
reducing or eliminating the need to make the distinction between copyrightable and non-copyrightable elements
-
Requesting behavior, such as citation, through norms rather than as a legal requirement based on copyright or contracts, allows for different scientific disciplines to develop different norms for citation.
-
any obligations on the user of the data or database such as “copyleft” or “share alike”, or even the legal requirement to provide attribution
-
interoperation with databases and data not available under the Science Commons Open Access Data Protocol through metadata
-
owner provides metadata (as data) under this protocol so that the existence of the non-open access data is discoverable
-
“Licensing” a database typically means that the “copyrightable elements” of a database are made available under a copyright license
-
share-alike license on the copyrightable elements may be falsely assumed to operate on the factual contents of a database
-
query across tens of thousands of data records across the web might return a result which itself populates a new database
-
selective waiving of intellectual property rights fail to provide a high degree of legal certainty and ease of use
-
apply a “copyleft” term to the copyrightable elements of a database, in hopes that those elements result in additional open access database elements coming online
-
Would a scientist need to attribute 40,000 data depositors in the event of a query across 40,000 data sets?

The Control Fallacy: Why OA Out-Innovates the Alternative : Nature Precedings - 0 views
-
This article examines the relationship between Open Access to the scholarly literature and innovation. It traces the ideas of "end to end" network principles in the Internet and the World Wide Web and applies them to the scholarly biomedical literature. And the article argues for the importance of relieving not just price barriers but permission barriers.

-
good definition of openness acts as a standard that ensures different open datasets are ‘interoperable’
-
Licensing is important because it reduces uncertainty. Without a license you don’t know where you, as a user, stand: when are you allowed to use this data? Are you allowed to give to others? To distribute your own changes, etc?
-
licensing and definitions are important even though they are only a small part of the overall picture
-
Everyone agrees that requiring attribution is OK
-
Even if a basic license is used it can be argued that any ‘requirements’ for attribution or share-alike should not be in a license but in ‘community norms’.
-
A license is likely to elicit at least as much, and almost certainly more, conformity with its provisions than community norms.
-
(even to a user it is easy to comply with the open license)

Welcome to the Gene Wiki portal. This portal is dedicated to the goal of applying community intelligence to the annotation of gene and protein function. The Gene Wiki is an informal collection of pages on human genes and proteins, and this effort to develop these pages is tightly coordinated with the Molecular and Cellular Biology Wikiproject. Our specific aims are summarized as follows: * To provide a well written and informative Wikipedia article for every notable human gene * To invite participation by interested lay editors, students, professionals, and academics from around the world * To integrate Gene Wiki articles with existing Wikipedia content through the use of internal wiki links increasing the value of both Please browse around the Gene Wiki, make an edit to your favorite gene page, and feel free to ask questions!
