        1. Only Chris had been at the meeting so he gave a brief review from it.
  4. Topics that the interest group should undertake

    1. Talk about Premis and the events we would want to see defined in Hydra
    2. It’s connection with PCDM and to make sure that PCDM can take into account digital preservation needs
    3. Finding the common actions and assessing at what layers those actions could be run. That would help decide where in the service those actions should rest.
    4. For those that are considering Hydra it would be helpful to be able to articulate how Hydra can help with satisfying digital preservation needs
    5. Performing a gap analysis and creating a list of functional requirements for preservation needs and perhaps identifying costs.  The LIFE cost model could be used for this.
    6. Share screen shots of systems in development
      1. The group discussed which topics to undertake and what actions to take next. As a next step Chris suggested that we make some WG charters for the topics. It was therefore decided that Chris will make a draft of the WG charters to be discussed at the next meeting. It was furthermore decided that we should contact the Metadata Interest Group to see how we coordinate our work on PCDM with them..
