- educational session seems to be the consensus
- Bernard Minster could talk about data committee results
- Martha Maiden could speak on interagency efforts
- publishing and referencing of data sets in research (Action: Mark Parsons to check with Bernard Minster regarding status of AGU committee's new guidelines re data citation)
