RES: RES: [Moims-rac] Granularity of certification

[Katia P. Thomaz]

Don,

I wrongly understood David was proposing to develop one certification
process for each Designated Community. Now I read the message again and got
the idea.

Thanks,

Katia

  Katia,


  I don't understand what you mean when you say 'proposed standard should
not use a mandated approach'.  Would you elaborate?  Examples?


  thanks much,


  don

    I think we´ve already agreed the proposed standard should NOT use a
mandated approach. Your question made me confused...

      Bearing in mind the importance of the "Designated Community" in the
OAIS view of preservation - i.e. one cannot simply say "we are preserving
this digital object" - one has to say for whom you are preserving it,
otherwise your claim cannot be tested - then logically it may be that any
certification does not apply to the whole of an archives holdings.

      Instead one might certify a repository for a certain discipline, or
even a specific dataset. However it may be better to simply certify an
archive for a specific "Designated Community(ies)" - which may of course be
a disjoint set of Knowledge bases.

      Some standards do not need such granularity, such as ISO 27001 (I
think), whereas for ISO 9000, for example, one does specify which activities
are covered by the certification.

      Any comments?

      ...David
