Note on implementor write-ups

In the first meeting of the EAD Roundtable, an open discussion was held to determine what the focus of the group should be. While the Roundtable saw fit to take on a number of topics, a repeated request was for information regarding the creation and distribution of EAD instances -- "How do you do it at your institution?" To this end, Members of the EAD RoundTable are in the process of gathering this information anecdotally and creating a list (parallel to that at the Library of Congress), which provides insight about the most often-asked questions. Each site on the LC list was contacted with a letter which asked about the following:

Delivery method of encoded finding aids (e.g. native SGML, HTML on the fly, or other specific method)

A statement about the procedure for preparing EAD instances, touching specifically on:

What format they began with,

How they converted to electronic format (if they began with printed documents)

How they mark up their instances

If they've automated their markup in any way

Extra steps they take to proof and parse their instances,

Indexing procedure
