Draft Outline of Workshop "Publish or perish? The future of academic publishing and careers" #UCDavis 2/13-2/14

Thanks to EVERYONE on Twitter and elsewhere who gave useful feedback on my request for ideas about a workshop we are planning to have at UC Davis.  For background see:

• My previous blog post: Ideas wanted for workshop on the "Future of Academic Publishing and Careers"
• The Storify I keep updating regarding my original request for comments: Request for ideas / topics on the future of scholarly publishing

Over the last few days I have discussed the meeting with many many people and we have come up with a more detailed / revised draft of the whole meeting.  I thought I would share that here -- a formal announcement will be coming soon with details on registering and submitting abstracts for short talks and such.
