+ __Strategic issues__
+
+ * Vision
+ ** What are the research support/science impact objectives of SEEK-Taxon?
+ *** Should we continue with leading edge innovation of concept models, services, identification or turn more toward deployment, iterating on production infrastructure tools?
+ ** What are the five-year infrastructure objectives of the group?
+ *** In the context of SEEK's Case studies and SEEk-Taxon's use cases?
+ *** In the context of broader taxonomic data provider and user community engagement and interactions?
+ ** How do we sustain the new development and technical maintenance of SEEK-Taxon infrastructure beyond five-years of ITR funding?
+
+ * Process
+ ** Are technical interactions within the group synergistic and all that they can be?
+ ** Can we increase the level of modelling, design and software development collaboration with Taxon?
+ ** How will SEEK-Taxon collaborate with the other SEEK subgroups on overall architecture integration?
+ ** How can SEEK-Taxon participants better integrate their own related, collateral research and technical development work to benefit both SEEK (Case studies, software offerings, etc.) and our related research and development objectives?
+ ** Should SEEK-Taxon now identify and forge cross-disciplinary links and links to other external taxon data management groups?
