Not sure what you mean exactly. Are you saying that we need 'carrots' to incentivize people to put their data online basically?
Yes
Carrot 1
Like we discussed, there could be a nice, online API for spike sorting (spikeinterface), spike train analysis (elephant or something), and visualization (ephysviz). This would be a good tool for people that would maybe motivate them to get their data online.
Workflow: data online --> spikeinterface --> elephant --> ephysviz
Carrot 2
Maybe we could have an automatic provenance download system. So for journals/people that want to know how the data were analyzed, you can immediately download a full page of provenance or something. This could help speed up paper writing for/submissions to journals that want a log of data provenance. Not sure if this would be possible or much of a carrot though.
To facilitate individual groups unavailable their raw + curated data (if only samples, not full studies). We would need to figure out the carrots so there would be benefits beyond bragging rights
