Main Features of the Report This interim report contains a wealth of information relevant to the future of this CRA. The Theme Program Offices (TPOs) encourage Belmont Forum and IGFA members to consider the four initial recommendations, which can be found beginning on page 21 of the interim report. These recommendations are: • Establishing e-Infrastructure Community Social Elements and Coordination • Creating Working Groups and Training Activities • Active Data Management and Stewardship Principles • Providing Support for the Development of Case Studies and Exemplars Based on these recommendations, and given the rapidly changing nature of this field, the Belmont Forum may agree to implement new actions under the existing CRA beginning in 2015.
