> I'm not sure how much value there is in putting it out there. A lot. Failed experiments can be the basis for an improved one attempting to fix what made it go wrong the first time, even if "only" for a master thesis study. It can also be a real asset for anyone writing a paper on a similar subject with working results since they can cite the failed experiment to quickly justify why they didn't test some variations of their hypothesis etc. In a world where paper are often limited in number of pages, being available to list failed attempts with citations is awesome compared to having to write a small paragraph with approximative and most often bad explanations for each failures. A first step might be to put such (non-)results in short papers and upload them to an open access repository in the kind of arXiv or HAL for instance.
