The OPF brings together practitioners and developers from the digital preservation community to address the challenges of long-term access to digital content. We welcome contributions from any organisations who have a responsibility for or an interest in managing digital content, no matter how big or small, or whether you have a lot of experience or you are just getting started.
Wiki knowledge base
Our wiki offers a wealth of information about digital preservation issues, requirements and solutions and it is regularly updated by the community: http://wiki.opf-labs.org/display/KB/Home
. To edit the wiki please sign up for an account at: http://jira.opf-labs.org/secure/Signup!default.jspa|http://jira.opf-labs.org/secure/Signup!default.jspa. (Please note this requires a separate login and cannot be accessed by your OPF website account.)
The wiki also provides a home for the projects in which OPF are involved: SCAPE, SPRUCE and the recently closed AQuA project.
There are also a number of Special Interest Groups which focus on a specific topic or tool.
Developing with the OPF
The OPF promotes a strong developer community by providing professional support and services to active developers in the community. The OPF has a mission to support sustainable development through the expansion of both the user-base and developer community. Core to this is the use and adoption of already adopted and widely used standards standards for both development and distribution of software.
