Stakeholders to be engaged: 1. Certified DSpace Partners 2. National User Groups
Step 1: Engage certified DSpace partners:

- Focus on:
- Three areas you find crucial
- What does DSpace need to to be to stay/become a thriving open source ecosystem to service providers?
- What is needed to position DSpace for the future for broad use areas (see DSpace Positioning)
- Focus on clients: What kind rsp. which of your client concerns are not matched in current DSpace?
- Possible additional input:
- Additional feature catalog offered by service provider
