Overview:
The Practical Policy WG solicits policies that are used to manage data centers, with the goal of sharing
practical examples. A survey of production policies indicated that the highest priority policies are related
to integrity, preservation, access control, data management plans, provenance, publication, replication,
and data staging. In the session, a schedule for selecting representative policies and completing
deliverables will be developed. Participation by any sites managing data is welcome.
