Workshop Topics and Panel Organization

The workshop was organized as a set of informal panels. We will ask participants to help lead the discussions on each of the panels. Panels are meant to be very unstructured, with the idea of extracting everybody's more or less wild thoughts on the various topics.

Panel Notes

We plan to produce a Workshop report as soon as possible. If you attended the workshop, please send Jim your notes and thoughts for inclusion.

The discussion consisted of four panels:

The ideal scientific knowledge generation process
The review and evaluation process
Tools and Methodologies for scientific publishing and novel notion of "paper"
The role of publishers and libraries in a liquid/open access world
The Liquid Publications Conference series (Wrap Up)

The full panel outline and the questions contributed by participants can be seen in the Snow Workshop Panels on Google Docs.

Several participants have contributed raw notes, from which we will be compiling a report for circulation and review. We currently have a first-cut of raw combined notes we have recieved from folks who attended. If you participated in the workshop, please feel free to send any additional contributions to Jim Law <jamesblaw gmail dot com>.
