[ESIP-all] [ESSI] Reminder: AGU session proposals are due soon!

[Cyndy Chandler]

Hi Michael,

thank you for the reminder.  Never fear, we are actively discussing this 
in several venues ...

Check the ESIP site:
http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/2013_AGU_ESSI_Session_Ideas
and you'll see three great suggestions already, one on interoperability 
and another on vocabularies (which is really about supporting 
interoperability)

There is another one on DOIs, and a great one shaping up on "Data 
stewardship: in theory and in practice"
