Questions, future agenda items of interest to the group
- Is there a copy of the original proposal to read to better understand the scope of the work? Maybe a link to the development timeline?
- Meeting Frequency
- call participants agreed that a monthly call around adoption and outreach topics is sufficient. Perhaps it might be easiest to remember that calls are the third Tuesday of the month. The next call is scheduled for March 20th, 12:00 noon ET.
- Listserv
- the group decided that a listserv (such as what exists for development, ontology, and implementation) would be helpful. Kristi will get this set up.
- Topics for discussion
- connecting with data sources (local data sources and broader data sources such as publishers, granting info, institutional repositories, and so on)
- potential data sources - what are people doing? where are sites getting data?
