Description:

Bionet at 30 years of open science communication 2019-April: Now archived at Jetstream-cloud.org and Cloud.Google.comBionet has provided open access, Internet news groups and discussion for many thousands of life scientists for 30 years (www.bio.net). BIOSCI/Bionet was started in conjunction with the GenBank project at Stanford University in the mid 1980s. It moved in late 1990s to the UK MRC Rosalind Franklin Centre, then in 2005 to Indiana University Biology department. A new supporting organization is sought to continue Bionet into its fourth decade. Discussion of Bionet's future can proceed on the list Bionet.general, email: bioforum@net.bio.net, and any bioscience reader may join this discussion. Suggestions and comments may also be emailed to this author, please request anonymity if desired.-- Don Gilbert. E-mail: gilbert.bionet@gmail.com or gilbertd@indiana.eduThere are continuing values in this communication forum, as there are costs, outlined in this report. Bionet includes 30 active discussion groups, with 15,000 subscribers, distributed by E-mail and Usenet. Topics include molecular biology methods, bioinformatics software and computational biology, general announcements and news, and several animals and plant communities including annelida, arabidopsis, fruitfly, maize, medicago, and zebrafish.A host organization that will maintain or expand this unique resource is sought. Suggestions include (1) an established biology-oriented center that already maintains public E-mail lists with the popular GNU-Mailman system used by Biosci; (2) open-access science communication credentials; (3) possible re-location to an Old World home, in Europe or Asia-Pacific, as Bionet receives continuing high use from these areas. The alternative of a new institutional home for Bionet will be up to group members, with options of commercial offerings like Google Groups, Twitter, FaceBook, and others.See DOI: 10.7287/peerj.preprints.27523v1BIOSCI promotes communication between professionals in the biologicalsciences. All postings to the newsgroups should be made in thatspirit. While the general public may "listen in" to the discussions,these newsgroups are intended primarily for communications betweenresearchers. There are other forums on Usenet such as sci.bio.misc forthe asking and answering of biological questions from lay persons.Please read: Terms of Use ACEDB-SOFT: Discussions by users of genome DBs using ACEDB.
