A web crawler for creating a taxon profile “on the fly”
A prototype of manuscript generation from Scratchpads was elaborated and published in July 2010
A prototype of data paper manuscript from GBIF is under active development

P rovide an online open peer-review and editorial system that will automate the process at the possible and reasonable maximum
