Jonathan
I have been just joined a committee considering the contracts issues to
our researchers.  We are very keen to understand what other universities
are discussing.  I would be very grateful to receive a copy of your
model/paper.
Many thanks

Jonathan,

At UEA we have gone the 'across-university working group' route and are
involved in ranging discussions. I would welcome a look at your
model/paper to see if there is anything there we can explore!

Thanks.
