# Approval of [[Draft Excom Minutes| September MInutes]]
 
#: Christine White motioned to accept the minutes as presented and Ruth Duerr seconded the motion. The minutes for August were approved by acclamation.
 
# President's Report
 
#* World Data System Update - Peter reported that ESIP is officially an associate member of WDS. Anne Wilson will be representing ESIP at the WDS/CODATA meeting, SciDataCon in November.
 
#* GEO Update - ESIP leadership & FES staff had a call with Jeff DLB and Yana Gevorgyan to discuss deepening the relationship between ESIP and GEO, US GEO and NOAA. Jeff had seven concrete suggestions. GEO will also have a presence at the Winter and future ESIP Meetings.
 
#*# Good to formalize role for ESIP in GEO and US GEO at a fine scale, wherever we can "ESIP will do .... " He thought plenary and breakout sessions were good, but relied on the right people to be in the room.  
 
#*# GEO is fairly high level to ESIP. ESIP is cutting edge technology/real data users and GEO has to worry about being accessible to developing countries and not asking them to do something too complicated - poses a challenge
 
#*# He likes the idea of ESIP as a user community on top of stuff that GEO/GEOSS does. He wondered how we'd entice our community since many aren't going to go through the Discovery/Access Broker (DAB). Evolution of functionality available in DAB - not sure if this is open source or proprietary. Run other instances of the DAB and turn toward community development
 
#*# US GEO side easier for Jeff to see connections. Make sure that stuff goes from US to GEO and ESIP people could help do this 'the right way', eliminating manual registration.
 
#*# US GEO chartered to coordinate BEDI. Starting to talk about what to do with BEDI money - abstract more discoverable, accessible useable with metadata and data formats. In practice what does that mean? ESIP providing guidance on right choices, using/testing implementations that feds set up.
 
#*# NOAA Big Data RFI - ESIP could add value by working on apps, analysis, customer specific things in the cloud environment  *As part of the Industry Day announcement, NOAA did release a Statement of Objectives (attached) as second RFI. 
 
#* Update on Foundation Executive Director Search - A lot of progress has been made. A subset of the search committee conducted interviews over the last week. The FES board will meet Oct 15 to discuss next steps.
