                                      </span>Although the paper states
                                      “Archive ingestion is not
                                      considered part of the IOAG
                                      interoperability goals.”,
                                      nevertheless as is recognised in

                                      </span>The use of the word archive
                                      is misleading. What is discussed
                                      in most of the document is what
                                      might be termed “short-term
                                      storage”. For example, the Service
                                      Description of the kind “Archive
                                      of Agency Y is accessed by Agency
                                      X to…”, which implies simple
                                      access to the bits which have been
                                      stored. Interoperability normally
                                      means being able to use the bits.

                                    <p>The MOIMS-DAI work on archives is

                                      the other hand they do not then
                                      agency X will need additional
                                      information. This may be relevant
                                      if there is a long time between
                                      the creation of the data by Agency
                                      Y and the use by Agency X. It may
                                      also be relevant if there is very
                                      little time between creation and
                                      use, for example if the agencies
