SoR Users Conference 2005

The goal of the System of Registries (SoR) Users Conference was to explain how the SoR fits into the EPA Data Agenda and EPA's Enterprise architecture as well as its role in management of meaning. In addition, the morning and afternoon breakout sessions promoted dialog with the customers in order to involve them in the forthcoming changes to TRS, READ and XML components of the System of Registries.
