Coming down from the recent FORCE11 Scholarly Communication Institute (FSCI) and FORCE2024 conference at UCLA has allowed reflection on some of the recurring themes from the two events. One of these was the issue of language appropriation in the open scholarship space. In the process of attempting to write some of these issues up, it became clear that this requires something of a wander down history lane.

In August v.12.0 of the InvenioRDM turn-key research data management repository was released, the first long-term support (LTS) release of the open source software since January 2023. This release enabled the migration of the Rogue Scholar infrastructure to the InvenioRDM platform, a process that will take the next four months. Deployment The first stage of the migration was setting up the InvenioRDM production infrastructure.

Here’s a grab-bag of follow-up stuff related to our new paper on neural canal ridges in dinos (Atterholt et al. 2024, see the previous post and sidebar page). Neural canal ridges, or bony spinal cord supports?

I start (tomorrow, Monday, really) on September 1, 2024 at the KB, the national library. I am incredibly excited about this. During the summer vacation I read a few books in preparation (mind you, I also just listened to books by Mathijs Deen😉). One was “The Consolation of Philosophy,” an older book by Alain de Botton, which I like to read or listen back to from time to time.

Dr Jonathan Evans and I will be presenting a joint paper at the Digital Humanities Congress 2024 in Sheffield.
