Working Group invitations: progress on responses Lyrasis / DuraSpace merger update Review Action items from prior meetings
Still to do:
| Review of affirmative working group member responses:
So the question is whether we have enough to move forward with scheduling DuraSpace confirmed that 7-9 is the ideal size, since not everyone will attend all meetings We agreed to move forward with existing group members and let the first meeting further refine the working group purpose & goals, which will allow targeted recruiting of further members (by both WG & AG) Group approved reaching out to C. Neylon to participate in the sustainability working group ACTION - send extra invitations ACTION - send reminders John H. is willing to lead Outreach group, but sparse membership: should recruiting continue? ACTION - John K & John H will get together and review the EOI list for targets for invitations AG liaisons to lead each working group are:
These liaisons will poll the workgroup members and schedule the initial meetings for some time in March These first meetings will include self-organizing: pick a leader and a mode of operation
ACTION - John K will draft a generic message to organize the first WG metings David gave an update on the DuraSpace & Lyrasis merger, which is in the due diligence phase; DuraSpace sees the financial support from Lyrasis as beneficial and Lyrasis is looking for international growth John K. has created draft of a lightning talk and shared it with the group John K. & Kurt had a follow up discussion with BnF to recap the meeting, covering the high-points of the meeting from before they were able to connect Bertrand pointed out that we need representation in the working groups from organizations that do not get their ARKs or infrastructure from CDL, but either run their own or go to another service provider for it CDL agrees that it is critical to the community’s viability that all perspectives and needs are represented in our work; that is the only way this effort will be successful |
