Yesterday we held the first User Focus Group of 2010, using the excellent facilities at the Institute of Directors in Leeds. Thank you to those who attended; and particular thanks to Olivier Legendre of BP who took the time to prepare a very informative discussion about his experiences.

This event used a slightly different agenda and format from those in the past, spending a great deal more time discussing specific business applications of our current software as well as detailed features of the new product designs. Highlights included:

• Some excellent quality discussion around our new Methodology documentation and the pros and cons of cleansing copies of reference (or golden) document sets in real world situations.
• A detailed exchange of some of the opportunities and techniques for extracting valuable metadata from analysed files both for the population of SharePoint and to expose different types of good and bad information practices.
• Olivier's presentation describing how BP has combined a range of different Active Navigation analyses to compile custom reports that drive user buy-in for cleansing projects.
• Detailed walkthroughs of Release 4 interface and workflow mockups which garnered energetic exchanges around roles, security management and our powerful new reporting capabilities.
• Demos of the new SharePoint migrator and the Release 4 software.
