FAO FishCode Programme supports Aquatic Commons Enhancements
The FAO FishCode Programme is raising awareness of AC and encouraging participation by developing country fisheries’ institutions. Several developments have been requested that fall within the priority areas for FishCode support and the programme has agreed to fund the following enhancements to the Aquatic Commons functionality:
- search, deposit and help screens in French and Spanish
- developing the utility of the Issuing Agency field
- development of offline and batch input
Final negotiations are being completed between the Programme and FCLA, and the work is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2009.
