Post-publication sharing of data and tools

Connotea Imports 2012-07-31

Summary:

"Despite existing guidelines on access to data and bioresources, good practice is not widespread. A meeting of mouse researchers in Rome proposes ways to promote a culture of sharing....The Rome Agenda described and summarized here (see "The Rome Agenda'), represents a challenge to stakeholders to coordinate their efforts to facilitate the ready exchange of data and resources and to share good practices already implemented by some organizations and journals....Although it is usual practice for major public databases to make data freely available to access and use, any restrictions on use should be strongly resisted and we endorse explicit encouragement of open sharing, for example under the newly available CC0 public domain waiver of Creative Commons."
