The Digital Dilemma 2

Interesting report just out from the US Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on digital preservation challenges faced by independent filmmakers, documentarians and nonprofit audiovisual archives:

It follows an earlier 2007 report ("The Digital Dilemma") that focussed on digital preservation strategies for major Hollywood studios.

The new draft constitution

Because of other important business I was not able to come to Frankfurt. Now I have got the draft constitution dated 31 October 2011 and would like to comment.
I am since over 10 years member of the International IASA and some years later also member of the regional branch "Ländergruppe Deutschland/Deutschschweiz".
