digital stewardship now <http://digitalstewardshipnow.wordpress.com>
will regularly post about milestones, issues, challenges and solutions
emerging across the global digital stewardship landscape. We will
endeavor to frame activity across disciplines and geographies, and
provide visualizations of this rapidly evolving field to improve
coherence and understanding.

We take as our perspective the following language:

UNESCO Charter on the Preservation of the Digital Heritage
Article 9 – Preserving cultural heritage
- The digital heritage is inherently unlimited by time, geography,
culture or format. It is culture specific, but potentially accessible to
every person in the world. Minorities may speak to majorities, the
individual to a global audience.
- The digital heritage of all regions, countries and communities should
be preserved and made accessible, so as to assure over time
representation of all peoples, nations, cultures and languages.

We do not suggest this is (or can be) exhaustive in any sense, but hope
it makes an increasingly useful contribution to awareness and thinking,
and, ideally, helps inform action.

Your comments are very welcome. If you have topics, issues, milestones
or other ideas that warrant coverage, please let me know.
