My main realization from the Twitter convo re your context is that maybe the culture shift is not within the Zone of Proximal Development for your institution (or mine). Which also makes sense given what Alan is saying.
But i get your point about using funding as a means to encourage cultural change. Maybe i just think that’s the opposite order of things for me, but maybe it’s the correct order for u. Caulfield said sthg yday about zeitgeist – ur German so that word is probably more intuitive for u than me 🙂 i think his point is to create zeitgeist via DoOO rather than what i am suggesting here which wouldn’t do that. But I also don’t know how many ppl at my institution would ever use it, properly or not, so that goes back to Alan’s point. And is important for u to consider what kind of prep ppl need to get there?
I forgot the European laws re US servers but i am sure u have German platforms.
