<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:

w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">ALA</st1:State></st1:place> is expected to make use
of the services of the Australian Access Federation (as they come into
existence). The AAF (<a href="http://www.aaf.edu.au/">http://www.aaf.edu.au/</a>)
expects to provide a Shibboleth/PKI Trust Federation on behalf of Australian
research organisations. I would expect the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State
w:st="on">ALA</st1:State></st1:place> ultimately to serve as infrastructure
for connecting e.g. biosecurity officers not only with public-access data sets
but also with more restricted data sets mediated via AAF services. In
other words, I have an interest in this area and in any approaches and models
adopted elsewhere in the biodiversity informatics community.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
