Thanks for putting all this together for us Damon!  I like your thoughts on Database Protection (posted on the original page).  I guess there are two environments in general I should look at, the first is private sector research loosely defined as "for profit research" and public sector research. I think the public sector angle is interesting as HIPPA confounds collaberation in an environment where protecting your work really isn't the goal - in fact sharing your work is pretty much the whole point.

These pages contain the latest version of all sections of our project; let's use them to keep from stepping on each other's toes by duplicating research.
  
How do you guys want to proceed, are there specific topics that you're interested in?  If so maybe we can figure out a format that allows us to head down different paths yet end up with a collaberative work at the end.  If not maybe we can work different angles of the same specific topic, or...

David - glad to have you on board!

[[User:Dmay | (Damon)]] Just a few quick thoughts... do you want to stick purely with the access-to-scientific-data issue?  We could explore a few related topics, like privacy.  Actually, if we're going to talk about HIPAA probably want to spend quite a bit of time on privacy.

As far as dividing things up, one thing we could do is have one person explore the arguments in favor of db protection and another person explore the arguments against, and then try to tie them together so that the paper as a whole is balanced. 
 
 
 
 
 
I think we can do most of the work through this Wiki, but maybe we should meet or have a phone call or something to kick things off.  Of course, we'll need some ideas to toss around, so maybe not immediately... do you guys want to get together next weekend, maybe?  Or I could do Wednesday evening -- I'm afraid Wednesdays are my only completely free weeknights, though later in the evenings works on M and T.  Or we could meet after class, or over pizza at the Husky Den beforehand.
 
 
 
[[User:Donten | (DonT)]] Hi Damon, first thing I need to do is figure out how to "sign" my input as my previous stuff isn't signed and this signiture was placed by ripping off your signature and changing the relevent bits - any guidance would be appreciated as I clearly can't figure it out for myself.
 
 
 
Meeting would be great, I know over the weekend we added a couple folks from the south to our group (WELCOME everyone!!!  I'm not sure if any of you are Bears but if so maybe you could let us Huskies know how it feels to have a top 5 ranked football team or maybe just one that can cover the spread:) so we need to figure out how best to include them in the discussion.
 
 
 
If others in the group have specific areas of interest we might organize our paper as a compilation of articles discussing specific instances of database protection. This might allow individuals with specific interests to explore their topic in depth. Or possibly we could each explore our topic with an eye toward (as you suggest) arguments for and against database protection as it relates to that topic. 
 
 
 
Just some thoughts...
 
 
 
[[User:Dmay | (Damon)]] I guess maybe I'd like to do some research on the EU's Directive on the Legal Protection of Databases, their pressure on the US to enact something similar, and the talk of worldwide database treaties.  Seems kind of unoriginal & bland, but in everything I've read it seems like there's a lot to understand there -- how these things came about, what cases have they cut their teeth on.  It would probably be good for at least one person to go in that direction, anyway, for background & for the worldwide perspective.  I'm still reading background material, but that's what seems interesting to me right now.
 
 
 
Don & David, let me know if you feel like meeting before or after class tomorrow.  Others... welcome to the group!
