The National Coordination Office (NCO) for Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) has issued a request for input - Invitation To Submit White Papers To Inform the Five-Year Strategic Plan for the Federal Networking and Information Technology Research & Development Program.
"A unique collaboration of 13 Federal agencies, the NITRD Program's mission is to formulate Federal NIT R&D to meet the following national goals:
* Assure continued U.S. leadership in NIT to meet Federal goals and support U.S. 21st century government, academic, and industrial interests.
* Accelerate deployment of advanced and experimental NIT to enhance national and homeland security; maintain world leadership in science, engineering, and mathematics; improve the quality of life; promote long-term economic growth; increase lifelong learning; and protect the environment.
* Advance U.S. productivity and competitiveness through long-term scientific and engineering research in NIT."

The NITRD Sub-Committee develops the annual SUPPLEMENT TO THE PRESIDENT'S BUDGET FOR NETWORKING AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. NARA is a member agency and for the past few years these supplements to the President's Budget have included issues related to the long-term retention and use of electronic records. These issues are recognized as a government-wide challenge - not just a NARA "problem." The FY 2009 Budget Supplement can be found here: http://www.nitrd.gov/pubs/2009supplement/NITRD-09Supp_FINAL-Web.pdf (see especially pages, 10 and 11).
To be considered, submissions must be received by August 25, 2008.
For full details of the request for input please see the July 25, 2008 Federal Register Notice.
The Federal Register announcement is web accessible by pointing your Internet browser at:
http://www.gpoaccess.gov/fr/index.html
then enter "NITRD" in the quick search text box in the "2008 (Volume 73) only" section of the query form that appears.
I hope this will be of interest to members of the list.
