5. Aligning community VIVO development with "Product Direction" (Andrew, 5 minutes)
Notes
Governance:
Steering & Leadership Groups renewing now; Bronze Membership elections will start the process. See schedule in Agenda (item 1, above).
Kristi Searle at DuraSpace won't be able to support the elections; mostly being done by Julia (thanks!) with advice from Mike. If anyone has questions or input, please contact Julia. Nominations for Bronze members to the LG must come from Bronze members.
Membership & Budget
Penn not renewing. Historically never were able to launch a VIVO project. High level buy in not there to renew this year.
Cornell not renewing with VIVO this year; shifting support to DSpace.
Conference revenue projections in original budget seem overly optimistic.
Proposal: create a revised budget for the year; can't go over budget. Call for volunteer to join Mike & Julia.
Terrie can help (with some scheduling); Hannah Sommers can help. June 20-21 looks like a promising time to schedule. Julia will Doodle for a time.
VIVO Conference 2020
Expert Finder Systems Forum – March 2019. Ann, Alex, Hannah, Mike, Julia were all there. Discussion about co-hosting this event in 2020; would be co-branded (half VIVO, half Expert Finder). Similar format to VIVO Conference. EFS Forum had good cross-section of attendees–data analysts, other people.
