[Moims-dai] Revised draft

Tue Jan 26 14:19:48 UTC 2016

"*Primary Information*: the information created by the Information
Production Project which is of primary concern in terms of preservation and
exploitation. For example this may the information captured by a scientific
satellite or the design of an airplane. The Additional Information may
itself require preservation and may be re-used, however it is of secondary
concern and may be added to, as in the case of Provenance, or replaced, as
in the case of Representation Information when the Primary Information is
Transformed."

Isn't this Content Information in OAIS terms?
