👍 on the principle, though I wonder if the wording needs to be slightly more precise to focus on publicly-funded research? Should commercial research need to be published in the same way? Trials and negative results should, of course, but I'm not sure of the nuances.

[gordondavies]

Definitely needs more careful consideration and wording, and specific clarification on public and commercial research requirements. I'll make some changes.

Great - the custom editor doesn't support updating existing PRs, but given your github history I assume you know what you're doing :)

[philipjohn]

👍 commercial research could probably describe the pharmaceutical industry so there is something in applying the same rules to medical research, certainly. Probably a wording thing.

@ghaggart are you still intending to make some changes to this proposal?

[gordondavies]

@Floppy Apologies for the late reply on this, I'll have a look at the wording and make the changes asap.

[philipjohn]

This proposal failed because of time :(

I wonder if changes will reset the clock? @Floppy

[Floppy]

It won't, but we could merge anyway as technically the thing passed, we just knew @ghaggart was intending to make some changes. We could do those as a separate PR instead. Our future automated system would have merged it. So we should. merges

[Floppy]

@ghaggart if you still want to make changes to this, then do so in another edit. :)
