DISI Minutes

The Distributed Information Service Infrastructure Working Group met
during the User Services Working Group.  The Chair, Chris Weider led the
session which included discussion on the current Charter, current
deployment and players, available implementations, documents to be
produced, and how this group segues into User Services activities.



In reviewing the current Charter, suggestions were made to change the
last paragraph to include ``maintenance'', and in the 2nd paragraph,
change ``building'' to ``providing'' information.



Chris will amend the Charter, and send out a new one for approval.  The
``combined efforts'' of the OSI Integration Area and the User Services
Area was discussed, as was what the current deployment of DSAs are.
There are currently more than 200 DSAs in 20 countries!



What organizations are currently building infrastructure?  The FOX
project at ISI, Merit, PSI, and SRI. In Europe, PARADISE. Quipu - Part
of the ISODE, IAN at UBC, NIST (not fully functional yet).
