Seemingly as part of the same push, the UKRI announced funding for an open research project I've worked on before: Dr Alex Freeman's Octopus [0], a more radical software platform that splits research projects into smaller components. It's good to see that the openess of research is finally getting to be a priority of the funding bodies.

Alex has been working on that for so long; it was really gratifying to see that she finally got some traction and serious funding to get it to go somewhere. Really looking forward to seeing what will come out of it.
