Upon completing the Roadmap, you will have a stronger sense of how to sustain your work, what your intellectual goals are, and what constitutes your project’s major characteristics. You will also leave with a detailed understanding of your project’s particular sustainability goals and a plan for beginning to work toward them.
In the course of running the Roadmap, you will be asked to complete an exercise for each module. The module exercises are arranged to cumulatively scaffold your sustainability plan. The documentation produced in each module will assist you in making subsequent decisions about the parts of your project that you hope to sustain, for how long, and through what means.
From Section A, you will leave with the following:
Awareness
- Of how your project’s scope and intellectual goals relate to your overall sustainability goals
Documentation

- A description of your project’s user communities, and their skills and needs
- A list of your project’s significant properties and sustainability priorities
- A spreadsheet inventory of your reliable sites of project documentation, the types of documentation stored in each, who has access to them, and how they are funded
From Section B, you will leave with the following:
Awareness
- Of the various people and technologies on which your project depends, how they are connected, and how they are funded
Documentation
- A spreadsheet inventory of your project’s team members and contributors, their specific roles in relation to the project, and the source and duration of their funding
- A spreadsheet inventory of the technologies used in your project, their function, and the sources and duration of their funding
- A spreadsheet mapping your project’s team members, the technologies used, the people responsible for maintaining each technology, and the sources and duration of funding for each
From Section C, you will leave with the following:
Awareness
