English abstract

The Open Archives Forum started a first Technical Validation Questionnaire in preparation for the first OA-Forum workshop in Pisa. The objective was to provide an overview on status, experiences and future plans regarding the workshop participants' OAI implementations. At this time exclusively participants of this workshop were demanded. In Pisa a high interest raised on the results of this small survey and the OA-Forum project received feedback indicating that it would be a good idea to collect experiences from a broader spectrum of OAI implementers as well as to learn more about starting conditions of those planning to implement or ones just beginning. The focus of interest was on fundamental questions like: Is there a large common ground and therefore good conditions for cooperating and learning from each other, or are requirements so individual that necessarily many further isolated solutions will be developed? Do the existing instruments for implementation fulfil all requirements or should tools and protocols correspond more than before to the needs of different communities? Thus in the second questionnaire we added or changed some questions and extended the duration. Beside this, we expanded the target audience for the questionnaire and subdivided the form to account for those projects that have not yet integrated OAI-PMH in addition to those who are experienced implementers. Technical Validation Questionnaire This second, long-term survey will continue through autumn 2003. The presentation offers interim results of the information the participants gave till now about used software, implementation costs, offered spectrum and interoperability, experiences and expectations in different communities and in different countries
