Dear all,

After having read the ISO 27001 and thecomments of Chris Rusbridge and
David Giaretta, I wondered whether we should not pay some attention to a
fundamental question (in my opinion): what is the difference between a
long term preservation environment and an information security
management system of let's say a shoe factory. Is there a difference? I
think there is. If we are able to determine these differences, we could
also be more explicit about the requirements. 
For example: Managing a long term preservation environment, could mean
that it is important to lay down the decisions made with regard to this
system, while this information might be crucial information to the next
generations, maintaining this material. Long term preservation also
means that the management of the "repository 'has some responsibility to
the next generations. In the shoe factory this is less important, after
all the system will be replaced after 5 years and after a conversion of
the data, the factory is just working with a new system.  
I'm sure there are more differences. I wonder what other people's
opinion is? May be something to discuss tomorrow?

Kind regards
