eForams 2.0. We would like to upgrade this website and propose a more innovative community service focused on sharing knowledge and new information on foraminifera. We want to learn and discuss your current demands and future prospects for this portal to make eForams more profitable for the community. The website is moved to a new domain eforams.org which is independent and non-profitable. We would also like to establish/set up/call for a scientific editorial board responsible to maintain the credibility of the service. The site is so far accredited by the Grzybowski Foundation. We also propose a new structure of the website that includes: eForams-Wiki, new FORAM-Publications, FORAM-Links, FORAM-Meetings, and eForams LABS designed to focus on specific methods. This new structure may assist our scientific activities, such as enquiries on new publications spread in different global and local journals. We want to encourage all foraminiferologists to share their knowledge and to spread valuable information. We would like to invite senior editors responsible for selected aspects of foraminiferal research. We would also like to emphasize that we still want to keep the site non-anonymous, i.e. build by the community of registered scientists. In order to enhance the quality and encourage scientists to post their review articles, we may also plan to extend our service to a new peer-reviewed Open Access electronic journal associated with the eForams site. We are open to new ideas and new contributions.
