Hi Aubrey,
thanks for the invitation. I had indeed planned to set up a document
to facilitate collaborative drafting of a response. So far, I have
seen the Open Knowledge Foundation, the Euroscience Working Group on
Open Access as well as Eurodoc signaling an interest in drafting a
response, and doing it all together - perhaps with an individual
comment per organization - could be worth a try.
The questionnaire comes in three variants - for citizens,
organisations and public bodies - and the session to fill it in is
time-limited, so we will have to set up an editable copy somewhere.
The Commission provided a PDF (
http://ec.europa.eu/research/consultations/scientific_information/questionn…
) whose text cannot be copied, and I inquired with them on July 16 to
provide another version of the file. My submission was "forwarded to
the technical unit" two days later but no reaction since - I just
dropped them a line again.
To get things started, I just set up
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/RCom/OA/EU . Please chime in there.
Thanks and cheers,
Daniel
