@JO – yes, I think many good point, and I’m (always!) full of a huge amount of admiration for your enthusiasm and optimism about Europeana and heritage projects in general. I think you’re a much more constructive voice than I am – and that’s why (partly), I’ve stayed out of the Europeana debate, and why I’m probably going to remain out of the debate into the future.

To be honest, I don’t think I’m going to post about it either now – I am in danger of Electronic Museum becoming a place for the insane rantings of a bitter, frustrated ex-heritage old man, and I’d like to think that it has more value than that. Needless to say, you (and many others) already know my opinion of what has been produced by Europeana to date (don’t mention the logo!) and I suspect I’ll just let it lie.
