Workshop report (pdf)

Letter From Frank Spear:

We are now in the process of working out the database schema, user interface, access protocols etc. and it is our goal to have a prototype working within the first year that we can present to the working group for comments.

We have set up a web wiki for updates, feedback, and comments. The URL is

http://trinity.db.cs.rpi.edu/

There is not much on it yet except for project descriptions, but we intend this to be a primary means of obtaining user feedback. Once you register, you can edit pages, add comments, etc.
