      Directions in Biodiversity and Systematics Research” was held
      during 2009–2010 to evaluate progress in the field and identify
      new directions and opportunities. Workshop participants reviewed
      SA2K as a way to rapidly achieve common ground and to jump-start
      our discussions. We did not plan to undertake a formal revision of
      SA2K, but our discussions led to consensus on a number of relevant
      points. We share these here with the intention of generating
      further reflection and discussion toward advancing our field and
      its missions.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: 'Times

      I hope that this is helpful. <br>
      <br>
      I haven't reviewed the latter document at all and barely remember
      the first, but I'd be surprised if they thought to include "work
      to reduce or eliminate unnecessary barriers to research." Because
      regardless of your goals and strategies to achieve your goals, you
      can't do anything if you can't obtain and move the research
      materials. <br>
