Is it possible to deposit my data as suitably linked relational database in Dataverse, so it is available to the academic community, but is somewhat protected from unscrupulous commercial exploitation?
Hi! Any research data can be uploaded to Dataverse, so I think it's a fine fit. The thing to keep in mind is that Dataverse is just software. The decision you need to make is *which* installation of Dataverse you'd like to upload your data to. Currently, there are three* installations of Dataverse around the world that are open for any researcher to upload data. They are:
- https://dataverse.harvard.edu
- https://dataverse.unc.edu
- https://dataverse.scholarsportal.info
We should probably list all three of these at http://dataverse.org/researchers because right now you'd need to click each of the 22 dots on the map to figure out which one allows anyone to upload data.
I hope this helps! Thanks for your interest in Dataverse!
Phil

Dataverse sounds like a monumental project, but its jargon and legalese rattles my near octogenarian brain. So let me ask if Dataverse is for me:
I am a retired academic, and in my dotage spent over five years researching the history of a somewhat mythological Jewish community in southern Germany that had existed between 1600 and 1743. I published my findings on line as an integrated database/Wordpress-Commentpress book (https://Stuehlingen.online). Right now I am still able to maintain the website including its mySQL database. But I don't know for how long that will still be the case. It seems a pity that the collected data will perish with me. I have no major problem with placing the data in the public domain, except I am repulsed by the 'scientific' and commercial practice of For-Profit genealogical websites to mine public domain data, reassemble them uncritically and sell the resulting garbage.
Is it possible to deposit my data as suitably linked relational database in Dataverse, so it is available to the academic community, but is somewhat protected from unscrupulous commercial exploitation?
