[CODATA-international] Crowdsourcing a collection of papers with Sustainable Development Goals

[Prakash Vish]

Following are my Views in brief:
1. Open access is very important.
2. I was expecting Much More Support to this idea. Nevertheless, we can
pursue
3. CODATA Secretariat may want to filter more actively posts to the
members. That focusses on the agenda.
4. Agree with Simons Views.
5. As one moves forward it needs professional management with proper
disclaimers and Confidentiality clauses.

Warm Regards
