AQ Data Summit

General acceptance on SOA as useful approach

Look at how to formalize and sustain the dialogue from both management and community led activities.

How do current and future projects look if we took a SOA approach?

How to share tools with external (to EPA) users?

How to foster interagency collaboration/interoperability and pooling of resources.

Is ESIP AQ Cluster neutral enough territory a good forum to continue dialogue?

Reconfigure Summit wiki pages so that you don't go through summit page to get to content (like DataSpaces).
