Subject: NDIIPP report on Preservation of Software
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed"

In March 2013 the National Digital Information Infrastructure 
Preservation Program (NDIIPP) hosted a workshop at the LIbrary of 
Congress to help formulate national strategies for preserving 
software which I was fortunate to be able to attend. This was a 
helpful exploration of a very difficult, neglected, but vitally 
important area. A report from this meeting has just been issued, and 
you can find a summary, a pointer to the full report, and pointers to 
other materials related to the meeting at
