[Esip-sustainabledm] Repository Landscape session planning for Summer ESIP meeting

[Parr, Cynthia - ARS]

Hi Sustainable Data Management folks,


As you may have gleaned, the ROI subteam is planning on monthly meetings to read and discuss background material to prep for their Summer meeting session in North Carolina.


Thanks to Margaret or Nancy (I'm sorry, I forget which of you wrote and submitted the abstract) we also have a session for the Repository Landscape subteam, here:

http://commons.esipfed.org/node/9139

We determined that this was necessary to do before the Common Tech Vision team really could do their work.


Question 1: Would anybody like to make changes in that session abstract? It was intended as a placeholder but I think it looks pretty good. However, I wasn't in the original landscape group in Tempe.


Question 2: Who is interested in a monthly meeting to prep for this Landscape session?  Unlike the ROI group we don't have a handy list of references to go through, but we do know of related efforts and could review them. Shelley Stall volunteered to send around a summary of http://www.copdess.org/ which has taken relevant repository info from re3data.org as a start. What elements are missing from these descriptions that would be useful for mapping the landscape of data services?

Prep meetings will help us make the most of our time in North Carolina, but we also recognize that people don't necessarily need more meetings in their life.  Please reply on the list if you think you'd attend monthly meetings and we can get them scheduled via the ESIP calendar. We could schedule them and not use them all if we don't have enough bandwidth. Alternatively, we can simply try to make a little progress during the already scheduled monthly general SDM meetings (second Friday of every month) . We just won't get into as much detail.


Hope to hear from you,

Cyndy Parr
