#**Moving toward a single membership non-profit organization: On October 6, a special Virtual Assembly Meeting on Federation/Foundation Merge was held. The meeting provided information on merging the Foundation for Earth Science (501(c)3) & legal entity) with the Federation for Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP). Key drivers include reduction of confusion about the two separate entities and streamlining organizational structure, policies and policies that would enable the assembly, leadership team, the board and office to run ESIP more effectively. The [https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1BNVvAjdVTSk0qt123J4fQkCzZY9KehSdVO6XNqUCqfI/edit#slide=id.g1816d97df0_1_79 informational package] is available for all. The next step for the assembly is to pass [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EHibcxtYnHVvs4wc8JfJhdXhogyQP_hXb0dM9nLgNJc/edit the member resolution] agreeing to the merge. Assembly vote will begin on Nov 6 and close on Dec 6. On October 7, the foundation for Earth Science board members met and passed [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nibMk1FH3C4rG6GbOidcaRixHLplkvE79kBPSvtEkXs/edit the board resolution] approving the merger proposal. The board is currently preparing the bylaws for the new organization.

#* The ESIP team supported IDW the week of 9/12. Thank you to all who contributed demos at our booth. As Emily mentioned, there was a lot of great visibility for ESIP activities. Initial follow-up was made with RDA and Belmont Forum for ways to extend ESIP's reach.
 +
#* ESIP also received additional visibility with the launch of PREP on September 22 ([https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/09/22/fact-sheet-launching-new-public-private-partnership-and-announcing-joint White House Fact Sheet]). A data working group is being led by NASA. We will keep ESIP aware of activities to contribute. If your group is interested, let Erin know.
 +
#* Bruce led effort to prepare for the special Assembly Call and plan the merger. He is working with Board and lawyer on revised Bylaws. All members will be contacted to participate in the discussion, and then to vote.

Agenda and participations are posted here. The meeting was informative and productive. Several approaches were identified for the two organizations to move forward in common efforts that are mutually beneficial. Next steps in the near term include planning of the next meeting at AGU, a webinar to introduce ESIP to broader USGCRP groups.

* Nominations - Job Description Doc This is being drafted.
 
 
 
:* We've received some suggestions; we will meet as a committee in the next few weeks to start finalizing nominations. We're working with the governance team to determine what will be needed, nomination/election-wise, for board. The Nom Com will have a telecon in early October. The Job Description document will help the committee to describe the positions for potential nominees. Please take a look at your position in this document and add your insights. We don’t want to rewrite what can be found in other documents, but having a single document that spells out the duties of each position will be really helpful going forward. Next Steps: Please take a look at the document (Note: this is a living document) and add your information by the beginning of October. Staff will send out an email to all current leaders for their input.
 
 
 
* Products &amp; Services
 
 
 
:* Preparation for the next RFP, including more targeted advertising through the Types. Soren is doing some outreach to the Type IIs and IIIs.
 
 
 
* Semantic Technology
 
 
 
:* Independent ontology portal evaluation using ESIP evaluation framework. In the coming year the focus will be on outreach and developing a roadmap to help groups join and take advantage of ESIP semantic technology.
 
 
 
* Type Rep Reports
 
 
 
:* Type I
 
 
 
:* Type II
 
 
 
:* Type III:
 
 
 
:** Ted reports that they are pulling together a BOF for HDF users at AGU. The idea would include Type IIIs giving short presentations. Bob and Skye will be included in this planning.
 
 
 
5. '''Other Business'''
 
 
 
* ESIP at International Data Week -
 
 
 
* Please add your ideas, events, sessions etc to this ''[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oq-x4TYmSaBCmBfmUoFoT3blkd_eYCYFfUUOk5Rvtms/edit google doc]'': There will be an email posted on Thursday with this info.
 
 
 
* Justin will be doing a wrap-up on September 19th at the Data Stewardship call.
 
 
 
* 2017 Theme proposed:
 
 
 
:* Using the 2nd goal: “Strengthening the ties between observation and user communities.”
 
 
 
* AMS is going to have a similar theme. Some other topics: social media, crowd sourcing, data ethics? Under the overarching theme, there can be some subtopics that get articulated. Bill Teng had talked about this in an email. Soren had mentioned ethics. Call for a motion: Christine moved and Denise seconded. The motion is approved. The Visioneers will be informed.
 
 
 
6. '''Committee purpose discussion'''
 
 
 
* We are at a point where we need to reexamine what the purpose of committees is? What do we want this to be going forward? The bylaws have descriptions of the committees. ESIP is growing in capabilities and has activities that are bigger than any one committee. Justin is working on a response. Ethan noted that for IT&amp;I the description in the bylaws is too generic. Perhaps a more concrete description would help the committees find their core purpose. Ken noted that new policy and procedure documents would serve this purpose. As a living document it would be more current. More flexibility will be one outcome. It would be nice to maintain an historical record of the changes in the document. The wiki has history on the pages.
 
 
 
7. '''ESIP Lab discussion'''
 
 
 
* The “ESIP Lab” notion is an example of a new capability. There are concerns about reliability and sustainability. How can we make sure that things get done in the space? With staff support and careful planning things can be managed.
 
 
 
* The “ESIP Lab” would be a home for the test-bed, and other ESIP infrastructure that would work across committees. When we do fund people to do work then there will be a greater need for systems to manage the processes. There are already some management tasks that need to be addressed. The staff will work on this.
 
 
 
* The idea of the lab is to have standard procedures across the Federation, and to support a minimal infrastructure. How do things evolve from ideas to test-beds to infrastructure that has some sustainable life? What does it mean to have a community resource that ESIP would fund over a longer term. Some discussion about how the OGC does this.
 
 
 
* Now is the time to capture a simple description of the whole Federation and its parts. The goal is to have draft charters for all the current groups by October 11. Bruce will send out an email to all of the groups.
 
 
 
Any other business?
 
none. Meeting adjourned.
