National Science Board Seeks Public Comment on Data Policies Report

"The US National Science Board posted this call for comments yesterday (December 30, 2011): "The National Science Board (NSB) seeks comments form [sic] the public on the report from the Committee on Strategy and Budget Task Force on Data Policies, Digital Research Data Sharing and Management. Please send your comments by email to Blane Dahl at the National Science Board Office at bdahl@nsf.gov. Comments are due by close of business January 10, 2012...." Yes, you did the math correctly. We have less than two weeks to write comments. Worse, the call for comments uses an invalid link to the report on which it seeks comments. Thanks to +Cliff Lynch for pointing out the correct link: http://www.nsf.gov/nsb/publications/2011/nsb1124.pdf Supporters of open data should spread the word. And if the NSB really cares for public comments, it should extend the deadline."
