#1 The paper sums up at the end
The paper sums up at the end with a plug for the BioSharing website, intended to "centralize and to give a higher profile to bioscience data policies and standards":
http://biosharing.org
From the site main page: "The BioSharing website was launched to accompany the publication of the below article on the role of data policies in supporting scientific research. This website is dedicated to centralizing and giving higher profile to bioscience data policies and standards. Its offers a focal point for the various stakeholders in data policy by fulfilling two main roles: (i) Providing a ‘one-stop-shop’ for those seeking data policy documents and related information (including information about the standards and technologies that support them) and (ii) Encouraging the exchange of ideas and policy components amongst funders, and between funders and potential fundees, ultimately to harmonize policy components where feasible."
