Plans For Day 2

• Day 2

• Participants expected to play an active role
• Discussion groups
• Concentrate on single topic
• Held in parallel
• Aims to provide recommendations for
• Institutions
• National bodies
• UK Web Focus
• Report back to plenary group

Would like to see a national position on web
server software / caching guidelines, etc. There
are obviously many institutions reinventing the
wheel and I would like to participate in greater
collaboration and sharing of information,
resources, etc. Hopefully this workshop could be
a catalystin forming a national voice ...
