Background

One break-out session at the CURATEcamp iPRES 2012 was affectionately branded "file id confessional" where we commiserated on the state of our file id tools and processes. We also talked about:

  • We're all hooked on that FITS.xml but FITS needs performance optimization ASAP (also, Is Harvard up for extra dev?)
  • Apache Tika is very actively supported and useful tool for file id and content extraction. How much of our file id requirements can it in fact cover?
  • Archivematica Format Policy Registry use case
  • Jason Scott's "Let's Just Solve the Problem" campaign to boldly catalog as much file format info as possible in the month of November.

What
