Discussion

Name work (from TaxonTaskList) Paul Kirk is unavailable to work with Jessie on this until spring? Decided to continue with ABCD Name elements in TCS for Taxonomic Object Service work with the understanding that this may change in the future. The Linnean core schema has not been finalized, so we will wait until it is more stable to consider incorporating it.

Visualization Tools What are our objectives for the Feb 15 meeting? Bob has taken responsibility for summarizing the issues, goals, use cases, etc on the wiki by 24 Nov. He will send out an email when this is available for consideration. The rest of the group can read, comment by email, etc prior to the 15 Dec teleconference.
