Schools Interoperability Framework

or SIF. Will we? Won't we? What's the problem? Someone needs to get this sorted. Becta are trying to push this (see http://uk.sifinfo.org/) as the way ahead for data interoperability but some vendors seem to want to block it perhaps because they've already invested in IMS http://www.imsglobal.org/ or because they have their own data-bashing interoperability that doesn't use an open standard.

Well I think Becta and the DCSF ought to get their act in gear and TELL them it's the way ahead and to get on with agreeing the data model.

My first blog

Well I've finally got round to doing this.
