In their contribution to the New Years festivities, I’ve just recieved an announcement from NSF that the National Science Board has now issued a report (dated December 14, 2011) from their Task Force on Data Policies titiled “Digital Research Data Sharing and Management” and is calling for comments, with a due date of January 10, 2012.
The call for comments is here

and it includes (at least as of December 31, 2011) a bad pointer ot the report; changing this to

worked for me.
Best Wishes for the New Year.
