[Esip-sustainabledm] FW: [ESIP-all] Summer meeting - limited travel funding for session speakers

[Margaret O'Brien]

Hi all -
There are 2 deadlines looming on April 10 ( a Monday):
1. call for sessions: 
http://www.esipfed.org/meetings/upcoming-meetings/esip-summer-meeting-2017
2. request for guest funding (below).

However, our regular April call is scheduled for after that date, April 
14. So I suggest we try to move that call to next week.
Here is a doodle poll for 1-hr slots on Mon, Thu, Fri next week:

The agenda would be ESIP sessions. We'd have a few more days to put 
session proposals together.
