A Possible Way Forward For Developing Cornell’s OAIS Infrastructure

This post is a recent, non-confidential internal memo I wrote to a co-worker as a sort of post-mortem on a long-term digital preservation project. Although its in very rough form, and alludes to some things that won’t make sense to those outside of Cornell University Library, (and I tend to be pretty loose in how I deal with topics, such as the relationship between performance and scalability for example, and I assume some familiarity with certain technologies), I thought there might be enough meat hear to interest others working in the area of digital preservation.
