    <p>David,</p>
    <p>I admire your industry and effort.  I would only suggest that the
      Management line question marks could be "Cooperative agreements
      and related preservation risks" or something similar to point out
      that the role of management involves diplomacy and negotiation
      beyond that expected for the simple case.</p>

        <p class="MsoNormal">I took an action to think about
          restructuring section 6. <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">It seemed to me that one could organise it
          by starting with an overview which shows (1) how things fit
          together and (2) gives some idea about whether we are covering
          all the options.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">The following table is my attempt at this.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">First let me try to list everything an OAIS
          might be, in the context of the OAIS standard, and without
          getting into specific disciplines.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">The bulk of OAIS is about essentially a
          single organisation – note that this does not mean that the
          OAIS is contained in one room or one building or even one
          country. It does mean that it is within a single organisation.
          <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">What else might an OAIS be? Looking at Fig
          2-1 of OAIS and reading the definitions we see that it could
          be a Producer or a Consumer. Although the glossary does not
          say that explicitly, an OAIS could be Management – maybe that
          should be clarified.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Now looking at the inside of an OAIS, in
          general terms, one can say that an OAIS may be a service user
          or a service provider.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">I hope this is exhaustive.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">Then one can think of all the
          “combinations” – it could be an OAIS by itself, or with one or
          more other OAISes and other things which are not OAISes.<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">We can draw up the following table which
          tries to position the various pieces of text which are in the
          updated OAIS draft in a way which I hope is reasonably
          self-explanatory.<o:p></o:p></p>
