Some Key Goals for Year 1• Complete staffing, project plan• Deploy DataSpace v0.1 (interim architecture)

– Build on existing software base (DSpace 2.0, Fedora)• Ingest of initial Neuroscience and Biological Oceanography data

– Selection/development of ontologies– Recording of metadata (including preservation policies, etc.)

• Design, Develop and Deploy DataSpace v1.0– Addition of new DataSpace middleware– Service models defined with partners

• Initial Dataset Catalog Deployed • Initial results of Business Development Management Team• Begin Educational and Outreach efforts (i-schools, OCW)
