Ha!  okay, I was wondering when it would come back around.  Yes, I think it
is a good start.  Metadata has brought us to a point, but now we need to
think about how good the data really is, with the idea that data that is
good, is used, and the more it is used, the better it can become through
feedback and requests.  We feel this is a good way for folks to see what
they have and what needs work.  Better than just an inventory.
