I see parts of the documentation explaining how to make some files private, are there similar options at the dataset level?
18:06
pdurbin
bricas_: at the file level, we usually say "restricted". No, you can't restrict datasets. All you can do is leave them unpublished.
18:08
bricas_
Okay. that's what i thought. I will relay that info, thanks!
18:09
pdurbin
bricas_: sure. What's the use case?
18:13
bricas_
I'm not exactly sure, honestly. Our staff are meeting with some researchers about using our DV and they were wondering about restricted access to datasets.
18:19
pdurbin
Gotcha. In general the idea is that metadata is made discoverable but files can be restricted.
18:20
pdurbin
And researchers sometimes call files datasets. :)
18:35
bricas_
yeah, the terms can get interchanged a bit, i imagine.
18:35
bricas_
is that a hard-line policy or has there ever been talk about restricted datasets?
18:48
pdurbin
bricas_: what would a restricted dataset look like? How would it be different than an unpublished dataset?
18:52
bricas_
answering a question with a question should be outlawed. ;)
18:52
bricas_
i'm not sure, really. i better let this one die unless the staff relay more questions my way....
19:02
pdurbin
bricas_: heh, sorry. We do sometimes talk about restricting some metadata. The example is often endangered animals or something. But right now all metadata is public and indexed by search engines when you publish. Again, files (which some researchers call datasets) can be restricted. :)

bricas_
noted. if i get more details i'll be sure to follow up. thanks again.
19:23
pdurbin
sure, thanks :)
