This reminds me: I've been asked to submit a paper to the Open source
and
standards conference on Sept. 12-14 in Phoenix, AZ. I suggested the
topic of "Open Source Research".
There are a lot of pieces to this, I think. The free access to
journals is certainly a large part of this. There is more too, things
like access to the data and software behind the papers, enhanced web
publishing with wiki comments added to the papers, agent model
"docking" projects, and so on. Wikipedia is likely a good example as
well, a commons for the basic definitions and formalisms we use.
I'd like folks to pass along any ideas and examples they have in this
space. This is a bit interesting in this regard:
http://creativecommons.org/projects/science/One weakness we face in this area, I think, is the difficulty of
publishing mathematical notation in a widely available fashion. There
is the W3C "MathML" effort but it does not seem to have taken off. It
would sure be nice to cut/paste an equation and integrate/graph with in
commonly available tools.
