 Redbox is a research data catalogue. It's basically a workflow system that allows people to describe their research data holdings and then make that metadata available to different consumers of that information such as RDA. Mint's the cousin of Redbox and Mint is a name authority system so it provides information about parties such as people, activities and services and it's basically a way of giving us an authoritative name lookup that what we saw in institutional repositories was non-identified data being fed around when you aggregated it was just a mess and we very much wanted to avoid that in Redbox and Mint and say look we will link things properly and we'll describe them in such a way that if someone else is describing the same thing that you can make that association properly. And we wanted a system that a developer could jump into and get documentation information and see if it was stable, a user could get it up and running quite easily and see how it was providing utility to them and that also linked into national and in the future international schemes so that we're going to a new stage now where the development of Redbox and Mint hopefully and fascinating is far more of a community based effort rather than a core project working through it. I've been working to establish a technical management committee over the code who will provide assistance to those people wanting some code back to the core and importantly next to that is a user, a Redbox user group who is basically implemented across libraries, research offices, universities who are saying here is what we need and here is how we need it to look so the development community can respond to that. These are non-trivial things to set up in at least an accusive level we are highly cognisant of the fact that our user community has provided a lot of information to us over and above especially for newcastle with their project expectations and so that's ultimately led I think to a better product but it has meant that we are keenly aware of how important our community is to our ongoing success. We're also mindful that smaller universities have often got a lot of pressure on them to meet national reporting and information demands and don't often have a lot of resources for this providing Redbox as a service to them again gives them to my mind an ability to report on data and join that national data commons without having to do a huge amount of software project work to do so we should be aware of what other countries are doing but not just see it as something that we defer off to the US or the UK that we actually have really good strong systems and we have good staff who are finding out really useful information and that information getting out internationally is really helpful rather than just sort of expecting to be guided by other groups.
