[DotGNU]The JISC Information Environment and Web Services

[Seth Johnson]

An interesting article on JISC's Information Environment,
part of the Electronic Libraries Program
(http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/services/elib/), and how it compares
to the web services model.  Andy Powell is asking for
comments.

People might be interested in the following article in the
current Ariadne (issue 31):

The JISC Information Environment and Web services
http://www.ariadne.ac.uk/issue31/information-environments/

I'd certainly be interested in hearing any comments that
people have about this article.

For info, a couple of new FAQs are also available on UKOLN's
JISC Information Environment Web pages

  http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/distributed-systems/dner/arch/faq/

A general FAQ and an OAI FAQ have been added to the existing
RSS FAQ. I've tried to base at least some of the questions
and answers on the issues that came up at the 5/99 projects
meeting in Manchester a while back.  Again, comments
welcome.
