Hi,
 
Thanks again to all participants, and to those who have forwarded
comments and amendments to the workshop record. I have attached a
summary of the workshop recommendations and notes, which will be
included into the DIRISA proposal to DST as an Annexure to illustrate
the needs and concerns of a potential user community.
 
I would also ask those of you involved in institutional repositories
and libraries to please fill in a short survey (9 questions, mostly
multiple choice) that we want to use to gauge the feasibility of a
shared preservation management platform on the DIRISA infrastructure.
The survey can be found here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/H8HRCX8 ,
and I will keep it open until about 9 March. Also forward to other
potential users that you may know of.
 
Note that the shared preservation infrastructure probably supplements
and supports ‘live’ digital repositories, by taking care of physical and
format preservation management, and providing a disaster recovery/
off-site archiving facility, amongst some of its tasks. 
 
Many thanks for your help.
 
Regards
 
W
