[LTER-im] Draft Reasons to Share Data

[Porter, John H (jhp7e)]

At the IM meeting I was charged with coming up with a brief pamphlet to
make sure everyone has talking points at hand when trying to convince
investigators.

I've put a comment-able DRAFT list at:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dYd2P9F0IxLjypPX-yRtoO3AluyvR3eW/view?usp=sharing

Please take a look at it from these perspectives:

1) Did I miss a reason to share data?

2) Are the brief statements understandable and (most importantly)
compelling?

3) How much supporting material would be desirable? There is a lot of
literature out there that could be cited. Similarly, we could give some
specific examples. Or is briefer better?

You can give me your responses either as an email reply, or in comments
on the document.

Thanks!

-John Porter

PS. You are free to start using the GOOD reasons immediately! :)
