After a year of working meetings to analyze the technical requirements with the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT, http://www.fecyt.es), "SINC platform" was born in December of 2007. The goal of the website is to manage and produce current scientific information for the media, the scientific community and citizenship. Its effective operation begins on February 7th of 2008, when Deputy Prime Minister, Maria Teresa Fernandez de la Vega, and the minister of Education and Science, Mercedes Cabrera, presented SINC at the closing ceremony of the Spanish Year of Science. The platform has a statewise scope and a vocation for public service and is based on a free software tool (eZ Publish). Content produced by the SINC team, composed of journalists and researchers, have a Creative Commons license, and can be reproduced in whole or in part, provided acknowledgment of SINC.
