  ANNOUNCE: Data Set Identifier Interoperability email list #dsii #data @IETF 

  A new IETF non-working group email list has been created to discuss Data Set Identifier Interoperability (DSII).

  Purpose: This list will be focused on the persistent identification of data sets that are shared. One primary use case will be the inter-relation of scientific data sets produced by different research teams; other use cases might include media developed by different sources and combined into a common collection. The first topic of discussion is expected to be permanent identifiers for data sets: their format, how they are assigned and resolved. This will draw from existing methods such as DOI, URN, PURL. Access policies based on identifiers, discovery, association of meta-data, and data integrity are expected to be later topics.

  List address: dsii@ietf.org
  Archive: http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dsii/
  Subscribe: https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dsii

  For additional information, please contact the list administrators.

  @YaleISP Data Journalism Conference – next Fri 3/9 (free) #bigdata 

  The production of news increasingly involves the processing, analysis, and presentation of data. Governments and other organizations have made more data publicly available, sometimes through extralegal means, while newsrooms have simultaneously been adding new tools and acquiring new expertise to manage this flow of information. This conference, hosted by the Information Society Project at Yale Law School, will bring together working journalists, computer scientists, and media researchers to examine new practices and challenges in the rapidly emerging field of data journalism. Panelists will explore the increasing use of data in journalism; the role that news organizations play in mediating, curating, and redacting data; and the interaction of new practices in data journalism with First Amendment and policy issues concerning freedom of information, open government, and privacy.

  What: Data Journalism: New Tools and New Challenges for Accessing Information
  When: March 9 from 9:30am – 3:30pm
  Where: Room 122 at Yale Law School (poster)
  Register (free): http://datajournalism030912.eventbrite.com
