Agenda and Discussion:

We do not yet know if Kate Jones is available for the pre-meeting.

March 21

Present:

• Robert Gales, Aimee Stewart, Bob Peet, Xianhua Liu, Nico Franz, Jessie Kennedy

Kate Jones is available to attend the April 26-27 meeting

Bob wants to invite Alan Wheatley - doing Flora of North Carolina - to the May meeting because he has data that we want and is already treating taxonomic information as concepts/ as we are trying to promote.

Aimee thinks that we should focus on the data for the current use case and talk with Alan at a later time.

Bob - He is a primary user - maybe we invite him Wed, May 4, following the Estes Park meeting and those who are interested can stay to talk with him.

Entire taxon group will be in Colorado for May meeting

Next conference call will be April 19. Kansas will arrange the call, but if system is not working yet, Bob can arrange on short notice.

TCS/LC update - Roger will visit Jessie to attempt a one-schema-fits-all
