...
Following up on my action items since I was not able to attend the meeting.
#1: Status of the forum tool installation:
- Unix servers are being installed now, we are targeting an end of March go-live, maybe sooner.
- It would be important to form a small group to discuss the different governance issues of running an enterprise level forum solution. Following is the process, I would like to propose:
a) Establish a group (please let me know if you can participate). It will include members of the SCSC, one or two stakeholders from Ops. (new communication manager, Gale Fong...). Participation from the IT sub-council would be important as well.
b) The group comes up with a proposal that should reviewed by approved by the SCSC, IT Sub-Council, the communication manager and the CIO.
I think we can do this in 2 60min meetings. Please let me know if you can participate, I will try to set up the first meeting for next week. Please come to the meeting with ideas and recommendations.
#2: LDRD for the Long Term Data Access system (LTDA)
Operations would be happy to partner with any of the science directorates to put forward an LDRD proposal. Designing systems to be in place unchanged for 10+years is a very interesting and challenging problem and results of such research may be useful across the science labs.
