I switched to editing the wiki draft #3 version a while ago and did not do anything (except adding the figures) to the gdoc. I would suggest to either use draft #3 and I can add the figure or move everything to a new gdoc.

It would be great to setup a new GDoc. We could add finishing touches and then just export the GDoc to WORD and be ready to send it out. I REALLY like your figures btw.

No rush. And if robs and others agree, I would say it would be reasonable to assign a deadline of 1 week from the day that you reconcile the final document. This should be plenty of time for everyone to make final comments. Someone will also then have to collect real names for all the authors, affiliations, etc. and do all the administrative stuff necessary to get the paper out!

The real names and affiliations can be found on the wiki under "Signers". We can get the remaining information such as emails when we reach the deadline.

Genericforms, i will do it ASAP.

The current version scatterd in the wiki draft #3 and gdoc in draft#2. I will reconsile both as final draft. I need some time..

It is interesting that you mention the lack of trending terms because in building iterative clouds where I keep removing common words I have been really unable to find anything either. It not surprising as it might be there no obvious major shifts in topics.

I think a deadline has to be set but also it is hard for me to follow the many versions of the paper. Is the one "final" rough draft that can be circulated in WORD format or via Gdocs? OR even on the wiki... It would be nice to have 1 spot we can see the entire paper as it currently stands.

I improved the first figure and added some context to the letter text.

I also added some word count data to the gdoc. It basically shows that the most used words do not change over time and the top 20 are the same from 2008 to 2011. Not sure if it still makes sense to create a word cloud over time.

Maybe we can use a different statistic. The forum search tags might show some different trend. We just need to get the data from ECO and play around with it.

What else do we need for the letter? Could we agree on a deadline? Maybe the end of this week? We are working on this for a while now and I don't want to continue working on the letter forever (there are always things that can be changed).

Robs, I agree that we shouldnt wait for anytime longer. I love deadline. If the word use doesnt change dramatically (alsp observed by genericforms), we might need to ask ECO for the forum tag (becoz its's tagged by the one who post, may be different from the real keyword used)

Cant wait seeing the figures...

That ia great, looking forward to seeing the tag cloud. Genome Medicine is always an option ;-)

I know one of the editors there who I am sure will enjoy this paper. The collaborative analysis and sharing of genome data was a big point of interest at the recent CSHL Personal Genomes meeting.

Sorry to be behind on the cloud. I was out of town and returned just yesterday. Will try to have some up tomorrow and will also share raw data with robs and macrowanger in case they have some suggestions. I think we should definitely make all the figures because if the letter is not accepted, I think this paper would fit nicely with Genome Medicine and there it will not be subject to the same restrictions.

If we want to make a single figure, then I would add the tag cloud data to the first one and ignore the second figure. We could keep the second figure for the longer version, if necessary. Or we can try to submit all figures that we will have at that point of submission and let them choose.

Agree, it is good to have everything now.

[robs]

Just thinking overlaying the tag cloud into the second figure to replace the raw dots. What do you guys think?

Thanks for the comments.

I think, we can only add one figure for the letter (not sure though). I will wait until the tag cloud is done and maybe we can put all together into one figure.

If you have more ideas of what data might be interesting to plot, let me know and I will do my best to get the graph done.

Having these three would be fine enough I think...
