\section{Survey}
The
following survey
to be was sent
out: out CfA-wide:
\begin{verbatim} {\tt
For the "Radcliffe Exploratory Seminar on Data Curation and Analysis", we
have been asked to
prepare lead a
presentation entitled discussion on the topic: "Astronomical Data
Curation and Analysis: What has worked and what has not?"
So that we can better understand and present the views of the
astronomy
community, we have developed a short list of questions. If you have views
on this issue, please answer by e-mail. Even if you have comments on
just
a single question, we would like to hear from you. Feel free to add
comments on areas we have not mentioned. We will be able to take into
account for
our presentation the discussion any comments we receive by 5 PM
this Wednesday, May 8. Wednesday.
Please let us know if we can quote comments you make, or if you would
prefer to remain anonymous.
With thanks,
Rosanne Di Stefano, Vinay Kashyap, and Ashish Mahabal

Background: When we talk about data curation, we have to define what we
mean by "success". One measure of success is that the data can be used
correctly and effectively by researchers who were not involved in the
original project, even years after the data collection was complete.
\begin{enumerate}
\item[] (1) What old dataset have you personally had to reanalyze for different
purposes than originally intended, and how much time did you spend on it?
Did you consider the time expenditure to be reasonable?
\item[] (2) In your view, what are examples of successful data curation? What was
done to achieve this success?
\item[] (3) In your view, what are examples of unsuccessful data curation? What
do you think would have been needed to make the data curation more
successful?
\item[] (4) What current project do you believe has the right procedures in place
to enable the data, calibration, and documentation to be useful and
relevant for unforeseen analysis 15-20 years from now? What is being done
that gives you this confidence?
\item[] (5) Are there any examples of current projects for which you are concerned
about the quality of data curation?
\item[] (6) Do you have comments about any of the following? (Please feel free to
add comments on other topics you think are relevant.)
- \begin{itemize}
\item VO/standards (NVO/VAO/IVOA)
- \item NED/SIMBAD
- \item optical versus radio versus x-ray data curation
- \item software aligned with curation
- ADS like \item ADS-like services
- \item WWT/Google sky and their use
\end{verbatim} \end{itemize}
\end{enumerate}
