<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">We are interested in discussing our ideas on possible ways to support technical and content appraisal of digital data by taking account of the digital ecosystem of those
 data, and hence their dependencies and implications for long-term preservation. Along the same lines, we are examining quality assurance methods for consistency within the evolving ecosystem, i.e. managing change in the ecosystem by validating its entities,
 detecting conflicts and keeping trace of its evolution through time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 to collect useful feedback from the archiving and data management communities for future research and development plans for appraisal tools, and more generally for the risk assessment and quality assurance as part of dependency modelling approach we are investigating
