Page History

jk: had contact with Decentralized Science Labs (desci.com); they use IPFS, which relies on long ids based on content-addressing, and they are interested in using ARKs for shorter, citation-friendly ids; they'd like to partner with us somehow; they may have modest amounts of money available for things like stickers or web hosting
mp: they should start with filling out the EOI (Expression of Interest) form, as many other have done
mp: not good to have individuals paying for things, eg, stickers; in fact, my UNT budget might have sticker money; shouldn't offer logo placement without talking to orgs that are supporting ARKA
kw: not sure why they would want it
jb: don't think we should get into the business of showing logos of other orgs
mp: prefer that they simple be listed by name, as on the arks.org/community page
mp: as we as an org develop needs for funding, we want to have a better sense of what our expenses are; that kind of transparency helps us plan
jk: as it is, some costs aren't that apparent, such as those implied by CDL hosting
all: any offer of support should be brought to the AG for discussion

jk: code4lib has a call out for preconference full- and half-day workshops; maybe it's finally time for ARKA to plan one of these? one member of the Tech WG is interested in helping out
