  11. Outstanding Issues • How to expose the contents of research collaborations – search mechanisms (Google?!) • Accommodating differing user requirements, e.g. concerning security (to portal or not to portal) • Prioritising user requirements • Development challenges: • Converting audio/video to web-accessible • Editing to single stream • Consistent ontology between old projects Iugo & Memetic • Social, legal & ethical issues • Institutional embedding
