[Apologies if you receive this email through multiple channels]

Dear all,

following up on the appended email and the 6th Plenary of the Research
Data Alliance at the end of Sep., here is a second invitation for the
submission of use cases for research data repositories to add to the
seven we have collected so far, until Dec. 11, 2015. Again, please don't
hesitate to contact me and my fellow co-chairs with questions or
comments (at the email addresses listed further below).

Regards,
Ralph
