The following sentence may be unnecessary duplication of the paragraph above it: "There are many sources which explain these benefits in detail [3]–[6], [8]–[11], and they all argue strongly as to why this guidance advocates for open source development. "

I particularly love the mention of skills and experience as a reason not to publish, there are less technical people around and I forget that sometimes.

The text in the box "Supports the Whole Community" could potentially be expanded to: "Other analysts and developers can benefit from work already developed by re-using code directly and by having many more examples available of code that handles public datasets."
