Overview of LDPStefan / Axel
  • D-Reporting is interested in having an overview of the LDP, what are the benefits of the software
  • Have some existing info to build from
  • Timeframe: maybe by end of year or early 2024
  • Would be best that this is somewhat independent from Index Data
  • First step, can just do pros and cons about Metadb
  • TBD: who is going to draft the first version of the list (check with Tod after WOLFcon)
  • Sharon and Scott will keep an eye on this as well
