Signs are indicating that the commercial world will soon take over the open data space. Innovation is required both in the workflows for data publishing as well as in sustainability plans for data repositories. Dryad and California Digital Library are partnering to provide an open-source and affordable service focused on global institutional membership, seamless publisher integrations, and community (institution, publisher, researcher, curator) buy-in for open data publishing. This session will be focused on a discussion with all research stakeholders present to gather needs, values, and priorities that would lend to a higher adoption rate of curated and published data. Our intention is to engage the community in a way that will lead to a community supported platform and service.
