Final report of the task force is available here:  Final Report  Working documents of the task force on Google Drive

Context

Over the years the VIVO Project has accumulated mailing lists, wikis, repositories, web sites, and other digital assets.  Newcomers and project veterans are often bewildered by the collection.  Parts of the collection appear to be maintained and useful while other parts appear to have been abandoned.  A review is needed to inventory the assets and make recommendations about future role (if any) for each asset.

Implementation of recommendations is beyond the scope of this task force. Future task force(s) will implement the recommendations made by this task force.

Objectives

  1. Define the attributes to be collected for each asset
  2. Create an inventory of VIVO assets
  3. For each asset recommend the future role of the asset
