Regarding participants from GESIS-ZA Cologne: Meinhard will think about 
that (he just arrived from vacation and will soon go again on vacation). 
  It seems he would be interested, but he will perhaps have some time 
constraints. Wolfgang is on vacation, both will be available again at 
August 12th.
I would see Meinhard as a business person and as a candidate for all 
business and b/t subjects (without controlled vocabularies).
I would see Wolfgang more on the technical side (but also on the 
business side) and as a candidate for all b/t subjects, and for metadata 
storage.
But they will discuss it themselves in August.
