Thanks Jeff and Lindsy. The "Reproducibility Project" is fascinating and should be very beneficial.

In your (meta)data efforts are you working with DublinCore?

http://dublincore.org/

Also, there are a few organizations out there specializing in archiving scientific work that might be worth checking out:

http://omeka.org/

https://perma.cc/

http://wellcomelibrary.org/what-we-do/developing-and-caring-...

I'm sure there are others, but I don't have the links handy at the moment.

BTW, you might want to note that the "about" link on COS is giving a 404 error at the moment:

Thanks for posting.

The DublinCore schema is quite widely used--many of the institutional repositories that we harvest from use it.

I know of Omeka--I've seen it used quite a bit. We should look into some sort of add-on connection with it and the OSF.

perma.cc is new to me, but our partnerships lead has been evaluating preservation services that we could enlist in archiving OSF content. I'll make sure to pass it along in case he hasn't seen it. We are going to great lengths to ensure our users that we care about long-term sustainability and that we see no value in lock-in.

Collecting Genomics looks very neat; I'll have to reach out.

And thanks for the note about the about link! I'll get a fix submitted tonight unless someone beats me to it.

By the way, if you come across other initiates, feel free to reach out. First name at cos dot io. This is good stuff.
