Glen, I'd be happy to participate in the Government Content Team efforts. I can provide case studies for photos, audio, and video if desired. I am also looking for guidelines to share with the field (over 400 parks and programs) on how to manage/preserve/archive digital assets. Please let me know how I can get involved. Cheers, Chris Dietrich, MS, PMP Digital Information Services Program Manager Resource Information Services Division (RISD) U.S. National Park Service 303-987-6971 *Conservation means development as much as it does protection.
