Welcome to the MoReq Collateral Website

MoReq2010 Progress

Testing framework

The DLM Forum has published a testing framework for MoReq2010. Available from the DLM Forum website, it consists of a Test Centre Accreditation Agreement (including an application form in case you want to become an accredited test centre); overview and instructions for the testing process; a 915-page pre-qualification questionnaire; and test data (incomplete, as of mid-January 2012). The entire package is 'in beta'; no timetable or mechanism has been announced for its finalisation.

MoReq2010 Available in Hard Copy

MoReq2010 is now available in printed and bound form. Beautifully typeset, bound, and produced with a glossy cover by the European Commission, this 525-page publication will make it a lot easier for most to read MoReq2010. Like its predecessor MoReq2, the paper version does not include the metadata model. It should be orderable from the EU Bookshop. Today (late January, 5 weeks after its launch), searching the bookshop website for 'MoReq' or 'MoReq2010' does not find it; search instead for ISBN 978-92-79-18519-9 - or try clicking here - but so far the paper version is 'unavailable', so the best you can do is to admire the 29MB PDF download.

For detailed analysis of the MoReq situation in January 2012, see our 'Tightrope Balancing Act' paper, downloadable along with other MoReq2010 resources from our MoReq2010 page.

You can use the resources on this site:

to learn about MoReq
to inform others about MoReq
to prepare presentations and other material that refer to MoReq
to see how widespread knowledge about MoReq is, and to prove how influential MoReq has become

In other words, there are lots of resources that can help you do your job, by helping you to convince management, by telling you what others think, what others do, and by providing pionts of contact.

MoReq has become a worldwide phenomenon. Articles, web pages, presentations, adaptations and other resources about MoReq are published continually. MoReq conferences are held, training delivered, and policies published... and this all around the globe, not just in Europe.

Tens of thousands of resources mention MoReq. We cannot include all of them on this site, and even if we could we would not. We try to include here resources that are useful in some way – because they illustrate a point, because of their language or provenance, because of their content and so on.

Please send us any additional resources that should be included on this site. We are very interested in your feedback as well.

To navigate this site, and to find useful resources, use the menus at the top of left of each page: or use the site map.

We hope you find all this helpful, and that you will let us know how you get along (and that you will contribute more resources!)
