Open Planets Foundation – A community hub for digital preservation

Over the last weeks at several events Paul Wheatley of the British Library showed examples of bit rot in an image collection of the BL.

Planets did lots of R&D into preservation and long term access and provided background and breakthrough thinking on many of the technical challenges.

But Paul’s tenacity on this subject bit rot triggered me to open a Problem, Requirement, Use Case sequence in the “what we need” section of the OPF wiki.
