Hello All,

Think of it as an opportunity to participate in shaping the definition of the 
persistence layout for digital information, focused on long-term preservation. 
Many of us have a deep concern and responsibility for the preservation of 
slices of our shared digital, cultural heritage.

The Oxford Common File Layout (OCFL) specification describes an 
application-independent approach to the storage of digital information in a 
structured, transparent, and predictable manner. It is designed to promote 
standardized long-term object management practices within digital repositories.

Through a series of community conversations [1] starting in December of 2017, 
the OCFL 0.1 alpha specification release is now ready for your detailed review 
and feedback!
https://ocfl.io/0.1/spec/

Please review the (short) specification and provide your feedback either as 
discussion on the ocfl-community [2] mailing list or as GitHub issues [3].

We will be discussing/incorporating the feedback during next month's community 
call [4] (November 14th @11am ET).

In addition to feedback on the content of the specification, you are encouraged 
to join the November community call to share interest in implementing OCFL 
locally.

More detail and implementation notes can be found at https://ocfl.io .

Best regards,
Andrew Woods, on behalf of the OCFL editorial group
