Agenda
1) Status of registration
- 32 have registered so far (usually about 40 to 50 are at the meeting usually), half are DataONE internal
- expected more registration this year w/ DMPTool and more focus, anticipating more registrations and walk-ins
- hotel registration rate ends on June 5, need to fill them for various reasons
- composition of registrations so far
- quite a few librarians, some industry, academia, government
- largest group is librarians, then program managers, then data managers
- all say they are coming Monday, many not on Sunday
- some of the non-DataONE people are new, some are repeats
- several are from Boulder, Denver
- don't see any outside of US
- need to aggressively increase registration between now and Thursday!
- DMPTool workshop may help with this, posting/announcing a bit late
- emphasis on administrators and users should be an important thing
- only 5 have expressed interest in posters so far
- long weekend seems to be a problem
- must cover at least 59 rooms per night ---- need at least twice as many people to register as what we have now
2) Email Circulation
