Data Curation and Preservation IG

DCP IG Chair Hanisch polled the interop e-mail list on 27 June to see how many people were interested in this IG. 18 responses were received, which is a sufficiently high level to warrant planning for an IG session at the September Interop meeting in Cambridge. Data preservation is also a key topic for the ADASS conference that immediately precedes the Interop.
