Factors against releasing things include
tipping off competitors, and that pesky "first public disclosure"
requirement. Still, I look forward to some discussion on things in press,
and perhaps collaboration on proposals, if only the early stages of same.
At some point, people will have to resort to private discussions as ideas evolve
until they reach an archival conclusion.
Hi Mariano,
i like the idea of open
research or open science :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_research
Research ideas
should be implemented as open-source software, papers
and date should be
freely available to everyone.
But i think, you are a bit optimistic about
discussing and sharing
about papers before they are submitting. People
would like to share
their papers with close friends or colleagues, but i
guess they will
not release they paper unfinish in a public
mailing-list.
Ok. Perfect. Yes, I was just being to optimistic :)
In spite of this, i like the idea of sharing research ideas
especially
among different communities. For example, i'm looking from
interested
people to discuss ideas about using software engineering
(especially
dynamic language like Smalltalk) in the context of robotics. I
think
there is a lot of mutual interests here.
I like the idea of a
smalltalk-research community because sometimes
you are a bit alone in your
laboratory fighting against other people
that are doing Java or other
boring stuff. Yes, there is some islands
around the world where several
Smalltalkers are together, but these
are exceptions.
So i vote for
smalltalk-research ;-)
Cool :) So....we agree with the name
smalltalk-research ?
Best regards,
