DDS Telecon 1/31/2013 meeting notes

Present: Anne Wilson, Denise Hills, Robert Downs, Ruth Duerr, Paul Uhlir, Rama Ramapriyan, Heather [?], Beth [?], Steve Aulenbach

Notes: Anne reviewed the DDS wiki page

First goal would be to develop deliverables for the summer meeting and secondary to develop materials at the winter meeting.

The summer meeting is in Chapel Hill in July.

1) What do we mean and what are we trying to address? Anne referenced a report on stewardship but did not address things like discovery, understanding and trust etc. What are our visions/options for this cluster? Also what scope do we want to tackle? (See wikipage for details).

Anne and Ruth believe that we should have a larger scope beyond just Earth Science data. This might include social science data. Ruth gave an example of Biologists using ice core data for their research. Anne suggested that we collect some use cases and other examples. Use case needs to be fleshed out (how detailed).
