# Approval of [[ExCom Jan 2012| January minutes]] - A motion to adopt was made by Chuck Hutchinson, with Ken Keiser offering a second. The minutes were approved by acclamation.
 
# Summer Meeting Planning -
 
#*The summer meeting will be July 17-20, 2012. Registration is set to open March, 15. Because of budget uncertainty and financial commitments that ESIP will be obligated to, early cut-off will be earlier than it has been in past years.
 
#**The University has coordinated with several nearby hotels to reserve room blocks.
 
#*** Action - Map hotels and make sure that all are within walking distance.
 
#** There will be an emphasis on training and workshops
 
#*** Action - Follow-up with University about available computer lab space. 
 
#*Theme (http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Summer_2012_Meeting)
 
#** On the Visioneers call last week several themes were discussed. Ted Habermann brought up the cross cutting theme of innovation and the framework identified in the "Innovator's DNA", which provides a large umbrella under which most ESIP activities can link.
 
#** Those on ExCom agreed innovation was a good, broad theme. Becky Reid suggested that the training emphasis also fit will with the innovation focus. 
 
#*FUNding Friday - There has been some discussion in the ESIP community about how to honor Greg Leptoukh. One idea is to rename the micro-funding competition after him. After some discussion among ExCom, the group decided to think about alternative ways to honor Greg and will come back to this at the next meeting.
 
#** Action: Follow-up with Steve Kempler and see if he has suggestions.
 
# Committee, Cluster, Working Group Template - Karl Benedict proposed a draft template and explained the essence of the template to the group. The template is a way to systematically highlight ESIP outcomes, state-of-art accomplishments. The document is a little longer than originally anticipated about 2000 words. The group agreed that this was a good place to start.
 
#* Action: Products and Services, Education and IT&I have all agreed to take a stab at producing at least 1-2 total documents as a way to test the template.
 
# Committee Updates
 
#*Products and Services testbed - Ken Keiser described the architecture that the testbed will pursue with development occurring in the space the testbed is most comfortable with, code being deployed to GitHub, a common social repository and then launched in a operational way on an ESIP host. The ESIP host is a general web hosting space. This method gives ESIP more control over it's investment and will provide an accessible way to use testbed activities.
 
#*IT&I - Matt Austin reported that IT&I had their first telecon two weeks ago. The first action from this group is working with the ESIP collaboration areas identified as relating to IT&I to establish clear mission statements for what each group does.
 
# Other Business - No other business.<br>
 
 
 
Motion to adjourn made by Annette Schloss and seconded by Ken Keiser.
 
The meeting adjourned at 3:08 EDT.
