General impression[edit]
It was a very interesting event. Unfortuately I was not able to be in York, so I joined the workshop via Skype. It was very difficult to follow the discussions because of background noise but the presentations where clear. There were many interesting presentations about registries, metadata handling and about a survey regarding the usage of registries. I also talked about our metadata handling and got feedback from other participants who have the same problems with versioning and maintainance of metadata profiles.
