New feature-ette on @COKIproject dashboards
We noticed people tweeting screenshots on twitter so we've added a twitter card functionality.
Add the URL for a specific dashboard - like
open.coki.ac/country/AUS/
And it should automatically give you a summary card...

You may disagree with the idea that schol comm could ever be a market. Or you may be frustrated by those who don't get how great markets are
Either way this report teases apart some of those tensions and disagreements in a way I think is useful
The reports we have produced for @OASPA on co-creating a healthy and diverse OA market are now publicly available. You can read them here: buff.ly/3lTZ1Bg

Oh wow, just 10 out of the 29 funded L1 applicants were female.
If you were one of the 155 women who submitted in this level, your success rate was 6.5%.
So remind me just how this new system isn't completely screwing over mid-career women? #nhmrc

My views on field-weighting of research evaluation indicators have not changed.
It remains the wrong answer to a poorly framed question. “Field” can be a helpful heuristic to dissect what is going on in a complex system. It is not in any sense a proper category for analysis

2/ For many years I have been asking for "bodies" and "regulation" for scientific publishing - no one cares. It's the largest completely unregulated industry in the world (20 Billion)

Idle thought of the afternoon. Has anyone written about a "sureveillance commons"?
i.e. interrogating the idea that if we were in control of surveillance capitalism that it would be better/ok
Ostrom's "monitoring" implies collective surveillance in some form

Really excited that @JOSS_TheOJ is formally adopting the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructure.
Great to see that community operations built on volunteer support find the principles useful! And interesting to think about how POSI applies.
