arXiv Conference Call with Publisher/Society Representatives

The purposes of the conference call was to revisit the outcomes of our 9/2011 meeting and also to discuss the recent developments, including arXiv's current sustainability model and priorities, emerging open access mandates (especially OSTP OA directive), research data support, new initiatives such as FundRef, etc. Are the collaboration domains we have identified more than a year ago still valid?
