Discussion of ideas for 2013

Odds and ends

  1. We have a private mailing list for slobs but the convention is to CC iaep unless there is a reason for privacy... it is more a convenience and archive than back channel
  2. All the meeting notes are logged in the wiki (as well as in the meeting logger)
  3. There is some paperwork we need to take care of with the SFC
  4. We tend to meet both on a regular schedule and on demand... but early in the year, it is good to meet more often
  5. Please do not be shy about bringing up topics, asking questions, challenging assumptions and the status quo
