Below is the agenda for the first meeting of the ARKs in the Open Advisory Group (AG). Teleconference access information has been provided to participants.
A CDL representative will act as interim Chair until a Chair is selected by the AG.
Ahead of the meeting:
- Please review the draft project documents: vision, resources and value statement, and roadmap.
- Please consider potential working group members from your institution and community. Please bring potential names to the meeting.
- Please consider if you would be interested in chairing or co-chairing a working group, and what those activities mean to you. For example the AG might decide that a chair is an AG member responsible for liaising with a working group, and a co-chair is a working group member responsible for managing the work of that group.

Overview of existing draft project materials | John - We drafted there artifacts. They are subject to comment and feedback. Vision - is the what, who and why. Resources and value statement - this goes over the problem we're trying to solve and how we know we're actually making progress. We want to understand how we have met goals as a project. We have identifier resources we feel we'll need to meet these goals. We feel we will need outreach, technical and financial people. It's a wide range of things. We have profiles for what skills and leadership we feel we'll need. ACTION - share the expression of interest responses with this group. Andrew - metrics look like they are infrastcutre metrics instead of use of infrastructure metrics. Do you plan to update that later? John - We want to get a sense of how many ARKs there are in the world. That particular metric we're interested in. Not a snap shot but live, up-to-date metrics. Marcon - I think the metrics section should be subject to discussion. Should we mention all of the OSSs that are using and creating ARKs. Kurt - we would like to capture all resolver projects and the contributors to those. ACTION - Add to the metrics list the number of ARKs worldwide. Kurt - we will open these docs up and open for comment as we progress. Roadmap - We would like to establish a chair to this group, three working groups, and eventually talk about governance and membership. Each of these goals are on our agenda for today. |
