All,

Effective Oct 1, all new proposals for funding to NP will require Data 
Management Plans (DMP) that meet a set of requirements.  Here is the 
announcement and base document:

http://science.energy.gov/funding-opportunities/digital-data-management/

This document references additional documents (tree like) and these 
following web pages should all be read:

     NP: 
http://science.energy.gov/np/funding-opportunities/digital-data-management/
     (this document references JLab's document)

http://science.energy.gov/funding-opportunities/digital-data-management/suggested-elements-for-a-dmp/

http://science.energy.gov/funding-opportunities/digital-data-management/faqs/

One component not yet addressed in the JLab / GlueX data management 
plans is providing unique identifiers to particular data sets, and how 
to find and download data of interest.  So far we have documented 
principles, but not details on how to get to the data and how to 
reference particular data.  I believe that this scope must eventually be 
addressed in the JLab/IT and /GlueX documents.  DOE is offering a 
Digital Object Identifier service:

https://www.osti.gov/elink/aboutDataIDService.jsp

The OSTI web page suggests this could point to a landing page with 
additional links to data components.  So, we need to plan how we want to 
manage DOI's and landing pages, and what ability to download data we 
want to grant to outsiders (non-JLab users, presumably).

Since GlueX is up first, I would like you to take the lead in working 
through this one.  Everyone on this email distribution can have a role 
to play and should think about a path forward. I suggest that we have a 
joint meeting later this month when everyone is available.   Please 
reply or reply/all to suggest a replacement if you would like to 
delegate this to someone else or don't feel you are the appropriate 
person, and perhaps suggest which week in August would be good for you.

Chip
