Who should know about this issue?

@kevin-obrien

What would you like to add to or change in the statement?

Should we be linking to centralised indexes like re3data.org and catalogue.odis.org as part of this recommendation?

And can we have a conversation about what "official" might mean in this context? For large clean data types, GDACs are easily recognised as authoritative sources of the current state of the data. For data/science communities that are still evolving, the data infrastructure will necessarily be more messy and fluid.
