   • what are the opportunities and limitations? should we integrate with them?
   • what repositories are available maintained by organisations involved in EGI?
   • Can/should we use one of these repositories or set up an EGI one, should we give freedom of choice among the available ones?

   done ( VT Scientific Publications Repository OpenAIRE

   "ongoing, FP7 project for 5 disciplines, OpenAIRE analysis, work in progress, mainly related to FP7 projects, few disciplines, few publications from EGI-InSPIRE, we need broader scope not necessarily related to publications from FP projects;

   comments from Sergio: focus on

   • OpenAIRE as an opportunity to feed into scientific publications from our future repository
   • what are the characteristics of the repositories to be integrated with them
   • if there are integrated repositories within the NGIs who already are integrated with them and that we could reuse"
