[AV Media Matters] Inquiry: know-how about digital preservation archiving

[lists@richardhess.com]

It seems in my rush to get the original message out, I created a
misunderstanding under this subject heading on May 15th. Dr.
Gladney's note that was part of the original message was correct, my
summary at the top took too many shortcuts.

Specifically, Dr. Gladney was not asked for anything by the Library
of Congress, and is not an agent of the Library. The request came
from the Council of Library Resources member of an advisory
committee, and the report is for the advisory committee, which might
use whatever we can dredge up to speed its process. The committee is
itself not a branch of the Library, but rather a group of external
experts serving pro bono, and therefore neither an agent of nor a
decision maker for the Library.

I apologize for any misunderstanding that I may have caused.
Remember, the deadline is June 8th.

Regards,

Richard
