Re: Your log entry. Jan 3 2008

I really like your phrase, "the document understanding community". It's a furphy (a perfect Australianism for this context) of course. Just like "the more information, the better the issues can be understood". We'd all like to think it were so, but understanding is just something two (or a few) minds might agree upon and clarify through communicating. Unfortunately, the curator's approach is to just to put 'their' digital objects' in the centre, invariably presupposing their institutional repositories are inviolable and the world will continue to revolve around 'them', while all the evidence of how digital libraries are now being built (and more importantly, used) a la Wikipedia-type projects is studiously ignored.--Simonfj (talk) 22:24, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
