More reliable & sustainable (e.g., distribute the servers, simple administration, distribute developers, development sandbox)
More functional (e.g., phylogenetic & publication services) Easier to use (better workflows)Prettier (better graphical design - more intuitive)More integrated (for data stored inside & outside the Scratchpad framework)
“making the Scratchpads better”
“making natural history better”Easier to compile, manage and reuse your dataEasier to find and reuse other peoples data Promoting your data inside & outside the taxonomic communityGetting people to work for you (crowdsourcing)
“overall objective” to increase the mobility of data and to make use of shared web resources wherever possible using the Scratchpads as a hub to link a community's data with a range of services.
