Hi Bruce,

Here are some initial grouping place holders for use cases:

Capturing preservation information
   1. capturing provenance of data production runs.
   2. capturing provenance of a climate analysis conducted by scientist on workstation.
   3. capture data product context. 

Using preservation information
   4. using provenance for reproducibility
   5. comparison of production runs from two granules.
   6. context for reuse in other domains 

These are just meant to get the use case discussions going.

I believe the original intent of "Key Systems Involved" was to codify for a particular use case, what systems or subsystems partake in the use case. It was a way to identify technical implications and dependencies. It may or may not turn out to be as relevant for us here.

Tried to find the six use case suggestions.  No luck.

As far as the generic categories below, I don't know what the "Key
Systems Involved"
means.

Personally, I think we're going to have to get a lot more detailed
than we've been
in the past.  Indeed, I think we need to get all the way down to a
fairly complete
UML model that could lead to a simulation of the scenario.
