the outcome

The final output of this conversation will be a document, series of web pages or presentation. It is important that we produce something which we can all evangelise about and are prepared to sign up to publically. The output will be flexible and able to adapt, but should remain high-level and not become tied up with a discussion of the various technical approches. This is not a technical document, nor a standard. It is an outline strategic approach to the machine-connected museum.

 

Suggested outline:

 

• a high-level statement defining the problem
• case-studies illustrating the costs, risks and benefits of the machine approach
• a strategic statement outlining 10 steps (?) that any museum should take when developing new (web) software
• a closing recommendation
