Comments on: Productive Nanosystems Roadmap gets underway http://www.foresight.org/nanodot/?p=2084 examining transformative technology Wed, 03 Apr 2013 18:23:47 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.4 By: Christine Peterson http://www.foresight.org/nanodot/?p=2084#comment-7175 Christine Peterson Tue, 01 Nov 2005 02:39:19 +0000 http://www.foresight.org/nanodot/?p=2084#comment-7175 My understanding is that this is an iterative process, with the stages something like: Working Group, Steering Committee, corporate sponsors (in Dec 2006?), public review. There is a stage (multiple months) when the corporate sponsors see it in advance of public review, to compensate them for their financial support. Then, hopefully, people both find it useful and see ways to improve it, and we repeat the process and update the Roadmap, continuing until we reach the longer-term goals. One can also imagine a more open-source-style Roadmap process. Would be interesting to see which worked better.

Or is the final product going to be presented to the world as a fait accompli? So does this community get to see working drafts of the roadmap and comment on them?
