[GO-ESSP] GO-ESSP Seattle '08 post-workshop materials

[Wright, Bruce]

Hi Steve,
 
Sorry - I failed to spot that action 3 already covered standard URL
naming; I think this is probably sufficient, as it is focussed on a
specific (and well-structured) environment, which can provide good
validation for the approach...and should bring benefits to AR5!
 
Sorry, I can't remember who volunteered for the "CF Namespace to be
obtained/registered".
 
...oh, and when I said "Are these real actions or is my mind playing
tricks", I was questioning *my* 2 additional actions, rather than your
list, which, as you say, is very real - good to see things moving
forward already!

Best Regards,
Bruce

	Steve,
	 
	Thanks for this list ... and for hosting an excellent meeting!
	 
	I noted down a further two actions, which don't appear to be
captured in the list below:
	   * Proposal for community-wide standards for URLs (a
controlled vocabulary of the various parts) to be handed over to the
community for use in well constrained domains (e.g. IPCC).
	

Hi Bruce,

I believe that this concept is already captured in
 
3. Development of a standard URL-naming scheme, primarily in the context
of AR5 [Martin J., Steve H., Bob D.]

We could perhaps substitute your more detailed wording.  At the GO-ESSP
meeting we discussed the draft that had emerged from the AR5 planning
meeting at GFDL. 



	   * CF Namespace to be obtained/registered.
	
	

Do you recall who volunteered for this? 

	Are these real actions or is my mind playing tricks :-)

There are some very real ones :-) .  Some are already taking shape with
just a few weeks having passed. 

    - Steve


	Regards,
	Bruce

	Hello Go_ESSP participants,
	
	As with past meetings of GO-ESSP, September's GO-ESSP workshop
in Seattle was enjoyable and fascinating.  As the host of this years'
meeting I'd like to express my thanks to all who attended and helped out
for making it a great success. 
	
	The on-line agenda from the meeting has been updated with links
to the session abstracts and presentation materials.  Thanks to Jason
Alvich and Chris Kerr at GFDL for pulling this together.  See
http://go-essp.gfdl.noaa.gov/2008/agenda.html
	
	Below are the volunteer action items that we drafted in the
final hour of the meeting.  While many of the items represent unfunded
(or inadequately funded) work, all are important goals for our
community.  I hope we will all refer back to these as touch stones from
time to time to remind us of priorities and help us to measure our
progress.
	
	    thanks - Steve Hankin (on behalf of the GO-ESSP Organizing
Committee)
