      • What questions does DCAT have? Would DCAT like to learn more about DSpace-CRIS?
        • Need to understand what this change would mean for day-to-day usage
        • Entities are important; need to be able to export data, and need more sophisticated statistics (reason for being interested in DSpace-CRIS)
          • Many European entities are contributing to both DSpace and DSpace-CRIS, and for them, a merger feels more effective.
        • What CRIS is since many orgs don't use DSpace CRIS. What aspects of CRIS will be included in the merger, should it happen?
        • Whether 4Science is still going to be active in the development of the new merged DSpace.
