[Taxacom] The New Einsteins Will Be Scientists Who Share

[Robert Guralnick]

   Hi all ---

  Who publishes?  Who is author?  Who cares?  Maybe the model is
flawed at the level of viewing the publication as the only unit of
measurement worth considering.  We have amazing new means to track
contributions on the Internet, and maybe just providing the means to
link published contributions to  data and to those who contributed
those data would help us have a more interesting model of credit.
Maybe?

Best, Rob
