One observation so far: the pairing "understand/use" (found in several paragraphs) should be reconsidered. At a minimum, I'd suggest "understand or use" to allow the broadest interpretation (understand for sentient beings; use for algorithms, software, and automated systems). As I said in an earlier email about the need to support reprocessing, much of the utility of digital preservation (and probably a key part of relevant archives' Preservation Objectives) is in the ability to recreate the initial data codings to allow later verification or improvements of earlier algorithmic studies of the data content.<br><br>Terry<br><br>On 7/28/2017 12:48 PM, David Giaretta wrote:<span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal>See <a href="http://review.oais.info/show_bug.cgi?id=115#c4">http://review.oais.info/show_bug.cgi?id=115#c4</a> for details of the suggested changes to incorporate Preservation Objectives into OAIS.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Any comments?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>..David<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><br><br><br><o:p></o:p></span></p><pre>_______________________________________________<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>MOIMS-DAI mailing list<o:p></o:p></pre><pre><a href="mailto:MOIMS-DAI@mailman.ccsds.org">MOIMS-DAI@mailman.ccsds.org</a><o:p></o:p></pre><pre><a href="https://mailman.ccsds.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/moims-dai">https://mailman.ccsds.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/moims-dai</a><o:p></o:p></pre></blockquote><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>-- <br><img border=0 width=339 height=142 style='width:3.5347in;height:1.4791in' id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image001.jpg@01D30AC8.29C61260"><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></body></html>
