Agenda:

Per the previous note, the P&S services telecon was changed to this coming Monday. Primarily we will want to finish up the plans for our session at the ESIP Winter Meeting. Tyler and I have taken a crack at a suggested session agenda and have posted it as a placeholder at the following location.

http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/ESIP_Testbed_Session_Agenda

Please look it over and we will discuss the specifics on Monday.

Meeting Notes:

Quick review of session agenda and overview agreement on the topics and the time breakdown
Discussion of ways to help the quick task overviews suggest community involvement
- Mention what cluster/group is promoting each task
- Maybe give brief example case study that might be of general interest to ESIP
- [Action] Ken to provide a template of a few points that each task presentation can address for continuity
Discussed use of pre and post session survey of the attendees to garner interest in the Testbed and maybe glean useful information
- Need to be short questions, probably with multiple choice answers so the results can be counted
- Limit to 3, maybe 5 questions
- Try to have one or two that would be re-asked pre and post session to see if the interest/education improved as a result.
- [Action] Ken to send around a list of possible questions as a starting place for the group to refine
- Tyler captured the ones mentioned on the call:
  - Did you know ESIP had a testbed? (Yes, No)
  - How interested are you in getting involved in the testbed (Very, Somewhat, Not Interested)
  - What do you want to get out of the testbed (Options??)
  - Would you consider using cloud resources for your work?
John Scialdone emailed a suggestion to add a couple survey questions to the next ESIP meeting registration process (need to remember for Summer meeting)
Need to verify that all the listed presenters are willing to participate in the session.
- {Action] Check with Erin/Carol about the 15min front office perspective
- [Action] Check with Phil Yang about the portal and information quality (3min) presentations for the task overview and a 15min cloud resource presentation
