Re: [Myexperiment-discuss] Why don't scientists share data?

[Paolo Missier]

hi,
here is one possible distinction (a bit cynical, maybe):  you can 
squeeze multiple papers out of a single dataset, but normally it is not 
the other way around. In other words, there is a preferred direction in 
the food chain of knowledge.

Thanks Duncan for the reference -- very timely indeed, I will need to 
redo my intro slides for the collaborative technologies talk :-)
