Resource notebook framework
Alternative Format: Original Text Document
RFC 464 Resource Notebook Framework February 1973 Because of the magnitude of this task, regional data collectors would provide assistance both to the NIC and to the sites supplying the information. We think that initially there should be five regions: Boston, Washington DC, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Mid- Continent. The regional agent would collect the information from the sites in their region and forward it to NIC for inclusion in the Resource Notebook data base. The NIC would work closely with the regional agents to ensure that the data is accurate and up-to-date. b) Disseminating data. There is presently a need to prepare different subsets or "views" of the resource notebook information. Regardless of which groups on the Network are given responsibility for preparing different views of the complete resource notebook data base, these views should be available for use on-line as the NIC as well as off-line. A working group of persons interested in the needs and problems of a resource notebook would meet periodically to review the situation, and to make concrete proposals for improvements. Discussion We welcome discussion on this RFC. I you think it is desirable, a meeting could be held at SRI-ARC to discuss the whole problem area. If a meeting is desirable, we suggest it be held soon, say on Monday March 19, 1973, at 8:30 AM in the SRI-ARC Conference Room. Please let us have your comments by March 9. You may contact us at (415) 326-6200, ext 3617, care of Mlke Kudlick.
