 Each of the six Working Groups had its own time to present the activities of its members. First was Working Group 5 – Data Exchange and Strategic Planning. Its members: Howard Hotson and Arno Bosse talked about the new project EULO, its technical guidelines and the possibility to receive financing for this project from Horizon 2020. The aim of this project is to bring together, and integrate on European scale, the information about postal communication: persons, places, dates etc. EULO will consist in assembling data from different projects and the preparation of standards. As a result, common access to these data will be enabled. The new database will be characterised by different modes of sharing data, different kinds of data shared, decentralized data creation and storage, as well as centralized interrogation and curation. Each of the six Working Groups had its own time to present the activities of its members.
