Feedback from plenary discussions:

• Two main themes – what makes this different from other sites? What will make people come back to this site? We need to keep asking these questions. Cloudworks is different, people are using it differently from what we can see, but we can’t become complacent.
• Issue about open vs. close nature of cloudworks. We want to encourage openness, encourage people to share, we also need the site to have critical mass. So it’s important from a social point of view. There are also practical issues about making it closed.

The more open the comments, advice and discussions are from researchers adn experts, the more likely they are to be picked up by relevant people and put into practice. Creativity and expertise is spread more widely, to the benefit of everyone.
