Hi all -
First, here is your reminder that our regular cluster call will be this
Friday, Aug 18 at 4 PM Eastern time. Connection link is here, with full
info in the ESIP calendar.

Second, a report from some recent activities.

1. Our paper in progress, on CARE principles for data repositories:
Several of us met with the University of Arizona-based Collaboratory to
discuss our mappings between repository activities and the CARE principles
-- work we presented to them in April, and that they have been commenting
on in documents.  The AZ-collaboratory notes can be found in our shared
drive here:

We will meet next on Aug 28, to fine tune our mappings between CARE
principles and repository activities. Our paper's authors group are already
on the list for that event, but let me know if you want to be included.

2. ESIP meeting, new cluster members:
An ad hoc meeting ("unconference", Thurs July 20) focused on how to include
information about the CARE principles in metadata. The session was well
attended -- 24 people, some of whom are already involved in our group. We
talked a little about two existing metadata (XML) schemas: EML2.2 and
ISO-family.

The conclusion was that a subset of the group wanted to continue the
conversation, but was not ready to start another ESIP cluster. Since our
group is the only one within ESIP that is already talking about CARE, they
will be joining our group in August. (There also may be ways a metadata
conversation can inform our finishing up of the paper).  Notes from July 20
are in our usual thread:

3. Also related to "sustainable Data Management":
There was an entire session called "Sustainability of Data Repositories..."
https://2023julyesipmeeting.sched.com/event/1NocF/sustainability-of-data-repositories-and-networks-when-federal-funds-run-dry
which sounds a bit like the premise we started with when we established
this group! Our group's focus is on repository collaboration to sustain
data (the focus of one of the talks), rather than funding and business
models. I did remind them that this cluster existed, so we may see some
drop-ins from that group also.

4. There is a new ESIP Slack channel: #data-sovereignty

(meeting reminders will be posted there too)

see you Friday -
