[Esip-preserve] NSF data management & sharing policies

[soren scott]

NSF EPSCoR was down to a year post-publication for some, if not all, of the
30+ states and no embargo for the near real-time raw data. I can say,
having tried to put together that set of information just within ESPCoR,
the NSF guidelines were easy to track compared to the different ways all of
the research office heads interpreted them.

Put in a request to add it the data.json for the institutions? Since that's
being adopted, it's a more flexible option, log-term.

Cheers,
Soren
