Common Themes from our Roundtable Discussion
Discussion at Dec 16 meeting:
Suggestion to have the next meeting focus on video. Kate Murray, Carl F. and possibly Courtney from NARA will share information. Paula would be glad to talk more about what they're doing. John said major record labels are doing assessments of formats. Will be happy to report out when they actually issue a report on their findings.
There is a fixity checking project already going on led by Trevor Owens. Kate M. will send Paula more information about it.
There are clusters of people interested in a number of other topics that we could follow up on. Many people are interested in assessments and certifications. This group started a project on this last year; perhaps we should reinvigorate it.
There are also a number of people interested in SIP/ packaging. That group of people are mainly interested in information sharing across the group.
Kate Z. asked if there was interest in discussion of any issues related to BagIt. Attendees did not report on any issues that needed discussion. Those who were familiar with it love it, and several people noted that just not enough people know about it.
John Spencer will report back on Universal Music, Sony Music and Warners' findings when they're done.
