<p class="MsoNormal">No current plans for summer session on my end. I will say that the Soils group seems to be having trouble figuring out an actual action plan. I’ve tried a few things (maybe too quickly?) and sort of feel like we haven’t quite found anything
that balances time commitment with interest/deliverables correctly. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Which is not to say that it’s been an entirely fruitless endeavor! We have gotten some fantastic connections and conversations going in the group and I think our community presentation portion is really poised to take off this summer.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">All this is to say that I would be very interested in other people’s thoughts on how to structure community events/engagement around semantic tool application, curation, extension, and creation.

+1<br>
<br>
The Bio, Marine and Soil folks are all primed. A working collaborative<br>
session with any of those clusters would likely yield useful results.<br>
<br>
Gary, if you are keen to lead a Landforms session I think it would also<br>
be relevant to the soils folks.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
