Agenda & Notes: Meeting, Dec. 12-13, 2005, Jacksonville, NY

Agenda, Monday

A. What are our goals for the meeting?

  1. Resurrect the MMS for the use of GEM and other partners
  2. Provide GEM with a working metadata management system allowing easier ingest and exposure of data and expansion of reach
  3. Harvest and evaluate UIUC-IMLS data for possible integration with GEM (in time for inclusion into IMLS grant)
    • Possible sustainability option for IMLS data and DLESE?
  4. Determine
    • What pieces of the overall project will be funded by whom
    • What timelines and deliverables will be needed to move forward efficiently and sensibly, and satisfy our various constituencies
    • Who we will need to collaborate with and how we will manage that collaboration
    • What do we want from the UIUC eval?
      • How does it play with GEM records? Can these records be as useful as current GEM records? If no, why? What would it take to make them work? What would it cost to upgrade them?
      • Diane can create chart
      • Should also include analysis of their collection data
      • UIUC money cannot be used for software, only for personnel (potential six weeks of Jon)
      • NEA money can be used to purchase Spotfire

B. Review Re-implementing the MMS

  1. Determine if steps and timelines are appropriate
    • How much will we be implementing for GEM and how much for IMLS? Where is the line?
  2. Determine where partner interaction occurs
  3. How much interaction will be needed with GEM data partners and who will do it?

C. Questions

  1. How to we determine the interactions between the MMS and the RDF datastore maintained by Siderian in the GEM context?

Jon would like to spend about an hour discussing the NSDL Registry project.
