Feedback from a data steward

Hi, I'm a data steward with the NFDI4Microbiota and the Clavel group at the RWTH/UKA.

I tested this tool and I shared it with a few of the phd students at the UKA who have started using it to create their DMPs. I think it's very easy to use and it covers the basics of what a DMP should contain.

I also recently reviewed the NFDI4Microbiota Flex Funds 2024 Data management plan and I liked the way the questions were structured and it's a bit more descriptive.

Would it be possible expand the DMP generator with some of the questions from the flex fund DMP template?

I'm not sure I can post the link in this issue if its public or not.

Hey,
Cat is referring to this DMP template: https://nfdi4microbiota.de/assets/pages/flexfunds/2023-07-10_N4M_Flex_Funds_DMP_template.docx

Hi @catgonzftw1 and thanks for the feedback.

I agree that we should integrate many questions and the overall structure of the concise Flex Funds DMP into this tool. Probably it would be even advised to have a separate NFDI4Microbiota specific Template.

Side Note: We are also planning to integrate the very exhaustive https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.5767155 DMP as an example for people that want to be even more detailed in their planning.

I'll tag this issue for general implementation of a customized template.

Cheers
Clemens.
