Open source meets open science - announcing the Open Science Network initiative

We’re excited to present the Open Science Network initiative, a first step towards open and federated digital spaces designed to push the boundaries of open science and scholarly communication.

I'm into it. 👍

Going by the website, it looks like ORCID itself isn't (yet?) officially involved with this project. I'm guessing you're using their API.

I've recently been thinking about a potential project to make ORCID records ActivityPub-followable, to keep up to date about colleagues who don't personally use the fediverse yet. Does that sound interesting? Are there ethical concerns? There used to be at least one ORCID-to-RSS service but it's been dead for a while.

@julian Great idea!

Our prototype enables users to create a federated ORCID account by linking it to Bonfire, so others can follow and receive their latest publications. To make any/all ORCID records AP-followable, a direct collaboration with ORCID would be ideal. This could ensure a unique canonical federated account per researcher and a way for people to "claim" it when joining the fediverse, including the migration of previous followers.

@fresseng @julian
I did see that, when I looked, just now.
Excellent! Would be great to hear that something may be moving in thi direction!

P.S.: This would sort of remind me of FriendFeed, where we could subscribe to the RSS feeds of friends who, in turn, assembled their feeds from their various contributions. Would be wonderful to recover some of that previous functionality we have been missing for so long.

@fresseng If ORCID is willing to have this under their aegis, I think I could come up with an implementation to make ORCID records AP-followable, at least as a prototype. My own ActivityPub work is kind of early stage and I don't have much experience scaling things up, but we could test something with an early-adopter community, see if it makes sense, and then maybe rearchitect with @bonfire. 🙂

I'm super in favor of having you there for the project exploration with ORCID, since you've already done the work of converting ORCID records (via their API) to ActivityPub actors, which I'd describe as the only challenging technical part of my proposal. The rest is all about getting the right people together and in agreement that this is a worthwhile project.

Since @fresseng suggested moving to email, wanna ping me at julian@fietkau.me? I'll CC you for my opening mail.

@Ashley Reynolds each Fediverse account can be followed via an RSS feed. To follow the Bonfire account from your feed reader, you can use this address

https://indieweb.social/@bonfire.rss

and, since only messages published directly are subscribed to and not those re-shared, I recommend you also follow the one at @ivan

Say, it might be a good idea. In fact, keep in mind that mine is not a mastodon account but a Friendica account and Friendica profiles work differently than those of mastodon. If you want my user's feed, the address is this:

interesting project! seems we share a similar sense of urgency and some objectives, one of the main difference afaik is that they're developing a centralized platform while we aim to develop digital spaces that each scientific community / org / university / etc can install, govern and use to connect with the rest of the fediverse ?

@GunnarBlohm we definitely want Scholar Nexus to be a federated / decentralised system, but with two caveats. Firstly, we know that many scientists now will find this unfamiliar and possibly slightly scary, and so we want there to be - at least at first - a very feature complete reference version that we expect the majority to use, with the overlapping federated parts likely to be more important down the line (but absolutely built in from the start). Secondly, we want rigorous archival guarantees for all content, and I think this implies at least some centralisation in the sense that there would be an organisation - composed of member research institutions around the world - that would define what was taken to be archival, and guarantee that it will be stored (and duplicated across member orgs). I think both of these are likely to be considered essential features for many scientists. But, if you agree and already have it in mind to do something like this, or at least to support it as one use case, then we'd definitely be interested in discussing more!

For better interoperability of the archival guarantees I would suggest using:
#IPFS and
#solid #pods
solidproject.org/about
with the integration of
#noosphere knowledge graphs

github.com/subconsciousnetwork…

All together these can provide strong security/transparency and "easily" moving data from server to server (Considering that scientists change institutions).

That’s a fair point. We’re on Github for historical reasons (before being forked to became Bonfire the project was hosted on the open-source Gitlab before migrating away, here was our reasoning at the time: web.archive.org/web/2021012501…. We’re eager to migrate to a federation-enabled forge as soon as one is available (there are several teams working of ActivityPub implementations)
