Gary et al., I just attended OR2011, but am unable to be at JCDL this
year. I am agnostic about changing RDAP2012, and commitments have been
made. But looking past 2012 it might make sense for RDAP, OR, and JCDL
to become one info and data access and preservation summit. It does make
for a long week, but these are overlapping communities that are
separated by the proliferation of individual conferences. And the topics
of research data management cross many of these conference boundaries.
In addition, funding for travel will be constrained in the coming years,
so perhaps consolidation, or a loose confederation, is an attractive idea?
