Fire Flux Dataset

Hi Erik, Janice noted earlier the Clemens BAMS 2007 Fireflux paper is copyrighted and we had to take it out the Joomla part of the site. Can you take it off the wiki also, please? Please replace by link to a version on publisher's or author's site if available. I am glad that we have this dataset here, but under what license and what is the original URL? Perhaps we should force selection of license and source in the File page. This dataset file does not show under files and it does not have a File page, how did you upload it? I tried to upload some datasets before but it wouldn't let me upload a .zip file. Thanks! Jmandel 05:53, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

Jan,

I noticed that there was a link to the BAMS article on the Joomla site, but it was bad. I had forgotten that it was supposed to be removed so I fixed it. Then I migrated the content to the wiki site. I did not upload it to the wiki, just linked to the file in Joomla. I can fix the wiki to allow .zip uploads if you wish. I'll see if I can find the proper link to the publisher.

Erik

Yes, I figured that. I thought we removed all links to the copyvio file but apparently not. It may be best to configure the wiki to allow .zip files. Do you think it would be suitable for a data repository? With each dataset I'd like to have some metadata information, at least original URL, description, author, license, and what software it opens with. Thanks! Jmandel 22:53, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
