[Sigifp-l] National Science Board Draft Report on Infrastructure

[Richard Hill]

[Forwarded from Cliff Lynch.  Dick Hill]

Recently, the US National Science Board released a draft report that looks 
broadly at infrastructure to support scientific research and related policy 
issues. This is a very interesting higher level complement to some of the 
issues examined by the report of the NSF committee examining 
cyberinfrastructure for the support of science chaired by Dan Atkins.  The 
report, titled "Science and Engineering Infrastructure for the 21st 
Century", can be found on the NSB's main page, at

http://www.nsf.gov/nsb/

along with a cover letter. (The main document has a direct URL  of 
http://www.nsf.gov/nsb/documents/2002/nsb02190/nsb02190.doc )The NSB is 
eager for comments on this report, and requests them by January 9, 2003.

Happy Holidays
