    Data Source Management 30m
    
    metadata issues, do collections have a metadata record? how will it stay dynamic? what is the long-term maintenance strategy, post-project? Plans to simplify archive import? Is it too complicated? What about a service to simplify common import actions, like atom feed, or here's a directory, import it! Or define a REST service for on-demand access of data. So it's not imported, it's connected. You would just build an index. Wizards are definitely lacking. not clear how to relate objects to each other and across collections during and after importing.

    Template definition - is report template creation part of the production infrastructure. - is it all WYSIWYG? - can you save it into a VRE? - should only be available as admin function? Report generation - what functionality is being offered compared to what was planned? - rich text support? - report output formats? - use of friendly URL's?
