Suggesting changes for the openness of the SyA wiki page on the RDA Global web site

by Leif Laaksonen

Dear All, As you all have discovered the SyA wiki pages have quite a strict protection both for reading the wiki pages as well as joining the SyA wiki in general. This has caused a lot of confusion and stress both from the RDA member side as well as from the administrational side. To enable both a smoother access of the wiki pages as well as joining the list itself we are now proposing a changes to the current settings: 1) The SyA wiki pages (including the mail messages in the list) would be open to the world. Now they are only open to SyA members!

by Leif Laaksonen

Dear Colleagues, I hope you have all returned safe back from the holiday season and that you are eager also to spend some time on upcoming RDA Europe Synchronisation Assembly meeting in Brussels on the 28 February.

Re: [synchronisation-assembly] RDA Ambassadors - reminder

by Francoise Genova

Dear colleagues, This is a kind reminder to those of you who act as RDA Ambassadors in their domain to please let me know about it (even if you are not sure, one objective is to understand what being an RDA Ambassador can be). I have six names until now, including myself, and some obvious ones are lacking. One of the communities which responded does not have an 'ambassador' function yet but is interested. You can also show up if you are in this case. Best regards Francoise

RDA Ambassadors

Following an initial discussion during the last F2F Synchronisation Assembly, I am trying to identify who in Europe acts as RDA Ambassador towards her/his community. My initial aim is Ambassadors towards scientific communities, but you may want to show up also if you
