two things that i would like to bring to Fluid Engage :

• prior art [we've thought about a lot of these questions before, though we might not have solved the problems - see Bibliography at http://conference.archimuse.com/researchForum ]
• apis as means of inter-application linkages [see for example http://electronicmuseum.org.uk/2009/04/16/the-brooklyn-museum-api-qa-wit... ]

web pages i showed:

Archives & Museum Informatics [our home page]
http://www.archimuse.com/

when talking to some of the developers at the Fluid Engage project team meeting today (i'm on the Advisory Committee), i realised that an introduction to the way that museums are organized, and what kinds of people do which kinds of jobs, would be helpful.
