Yesterday Digital Science's #Altmetric has added #Bluesky as a new attention source for published research outputs. However, #Mastodon is not in the list of sources, and #Twitter / #X is still there...

It depends on which elements your institute wants to include in this policy (e.g., focus on data, software, or including open access to publications as well). Some research institutes/universities prefer developing separate policies for Data, Software, Open Access…, rather than having all these different elements in a single policy.

In terms of a comprehensive Open Science policy covering multiple elements, I like the approach of the NASA SPD-41a policy that covers OA publications, data and software https://shorturl.at/m6KSb This policy could also serve as a model in terms of its clear language about which Open Science practices are mandatory and which are merely recommended (e.g., see Section II.H on p.4).
It is complemented with a detailed Guidance (https://shorturl.at/R4cSb) and FAQ (https://shorturl.at/Pr1Lc)

Institutional Open Access policies only: a comprehensive guide to good practices for drafting OA policies produced by @petersuber, a global registry of OA policies https://roarmap.eprints.org/cgi/search/advanced
Some examples of various Open Science policies beyond Open Access (at institutional, funder, national levels) you can see in this list: https://bienflorencia.github.io/rda-sharc-reco/mapping_tools/os_policies.html

You may also check this self-assessment tool developed by a German research group (https://road2openness.de/en/
), which aims to help institutions develop/improve their various Open Science practices
The full #UK #OpenAccess policy for #REF 2029, along with a summary of the consultation that informed it, has been published today, with no mandate for longform outputs such as books

An interview with #Altmetric discussing their decision to include #Bluesky as an attention source and whether they plan to cease indexing #X https://shorturl.at/lmwi8
“we’ve noticed that...the number of X mentions are slightly going down…we have recently run a survey…75% of our users that responded to this survey are either not using X or see their usage decreasing…However, we still see a number of discussions about research happening on X…So..there would be no reason for us to stop indexing X”
