Key Questions

  • What are the key characteristics that will support the needs of diverse organizations?
  • What is a modern system architecture for RIM/CRIS systems?
  • Why keep VIVO supporting semantic technology?

Suggestions of Meeting Specifics.

Suggestions of Meeting Specifics.

Christian suggested virtual white boards to help synthesize meeting thoughts.  Need good process to milk brain of the participants.

Mic: One idea is to ask each member of the Leadership Group of one feature that address a specific need at their organization.  Ask for diagram of system architecture.

Have both Spanish and German translator.  Or could have Spanish and German satellite events.

Christian emphasized identifying a date soon for the Fall is important. 

Christian and Brian Lowe will help Bruce develop a plan for the meeting.

Two Reminders:

Sept 11.  Come to Berlin for the Semantic Web libraries conference.  Monday is Vivo meet up.

Nov. 21-23:  Another EuroCRIS meeting Spain.  Have a VIVO track.  We can think about presenting something.

Launching National CRIS in Brazil and Open Science Conference in July.
