cc: GFSG Dear Community Council, Attached, you will find notes from last week's Community Council telecon as well as Friday's GGF16 PC meeting. I have extracted the following from the GGF16PC meeting for brief discussion on tomorrow's GFSG call if time allows: ++++ Proposed process for GGF16 Program solicitation, submission, etc. *Upon reviewing the overall event structure, it was decided that representatives from the following areas be solicited to participate in the GGF16 PC: -Operations (logistics, marketing), -Standards (for highlighting of Standards activities), -Discussion surrounding a Standards Council Plenary whereby no other standards sessions be scheduled at that time. Potential topics would be an OGSA overview or Standards Roadmap Plenary. -Community (new and existing communities, new research and community groups, improving communication between communities and standards, etc.), -Local Hosting Organization (GRNET, Kyriakos, etc.) From this committee, PC Chairs will be elected. ++++ The next community council telecon will be next Tuesday (08-Nov), agenda and dial-in forthcoming. Regards, Julie +++++++++++++++++++ Julie Wulf-Knoerzer Manager of Community Development Global Grid Forum wulf@ggf.org ph. 630/252-7163 fax 630/252-4466
