[ESIP-all] Policies for Open Data / (was: [ESSI] Reminder: Fall AGU ESSI session proposal are due soon!)

Fri Apr 12 09:09:41 EDT 2013

Joe,

I suggest the following:
ESSI - technical aspects of open access to data and publications.
Union - agency responses to memo
PA - public needs for open access

I'm willing to co-chair an ESSI session if anyone is interested.
Nancy
