Dear Members,
We are happy to announce that RDA approved the statement for the “Brokering Governance” WG !
I attached the final version of the statement: we added few sections to address the valuable comments received from the TAB.
In Amsterdam at the last IG meeting, the IG decided to structure the WG according to three subgoups and 4-5 use cases:
Sub-groups #1: Business Models;
Sub-group #2: Service Agreements;
Sub-group #3: Use Cases.
 
Use Case #1: ICSU/WDS;
Use Case #2: JRC Danube data infrastructure;
Use Case #3: GEO-BON;
Use Case #4 SIOS;
Possible Use Case #5: DataOne.
 
Please, contribute to the WG activities by registering to the RDA website:

On the web site we are uploading the materials presented and discussed during the last plenary in Amsterdam dealing with the WG.
 
Best,
Stefano Nativi, Jay Pearlman, and Max Craglia
