Since the next MCN conference in Boston will has digital preservation as
its theme, I thought I'd start forwarding RLG DigiNews announcements. Of
particular interest should be the article on PREMIS, which is a report on
an almost-finished data dictionary of core elements to support digital
preservation.

initiatives with a preservation component or rationale.
* Provide filtered guidance and pointers to relevant projects to improve
our awareness of evolving practices in image conversion and digital
preservation.
