Dear List,
Thanks for your interesting posts on the is question. In repsonse to
Keith Whittle's post in particular, could you say a little more about
what standards or metadata standards might be emerging? For example,
do you think that the standards proposed in the UK by VADs (Visual
Arts Data Service <http://vads.ahds.ac.uk/>) are useful?
>Thirdly, storage equipment supports open - and widely adopted - data
>communications and file store standards. Should such standards evolve, it will
>be possible to migrate collections without loss of any information.
Yours,
Beryl
