All Governing Board nominations to the Landscape Working Group (WG) were accepted by the Executive Board. The group has now 24 members and is co-chaired by the two EB members Jan Hrusak and John Wormesley. Following the first meeting on the 17th July in Prague, where the WG members discussed the timeline for the main deliverable i.e. the Landscape report, the group started collecting information on national infrastructures, policies and other strategic documents. These will build, together with the earlier findings of the EOSC related projects, the kernel of the Landscape report, which has to be prepared in course of 2019.
In the second meeting on 27th August, the WG agreed on the structure of the report. It will consist of 8 chapters, and it will contain after an Introduction and Background information, two chapters on reference framework and synthesis from previous exercises (EU projects and national surveys) focusing on EOSC related infrastructures and existing policies (deadline 9/2019). The next chapters shall describe examples, mechanisms of operation, trends and evolutions of policies and strategies, and shall be finished based on the entries of the EOSC-5B related projects. The final two chapters shall provide an analysis and generalization and eventually identify good practice examples and set of recommendations. The deadline for deliver this part is the end of 2019.
