14 March 2014  (it's pi day)
                                                      
Attending:  Bruce, Dave, John, Rebecca

Regrets:  Amber

Agenda: 

        1. High profile issues (or current items of interest)
        
        New MNs announcements? -  

• GOA awaiting news item review from GOA folks - Laura to ask Matt
• Dryad - turned on 2/22/14; announced today!!
  
  
  
  

        1.5    Current MNs

• eBird Update: see content from email from Steve 02/18 in epad:

                    http://epad.dataone.org/MNWranglers-20140221
                      after further review, it looks like there is nothing to address;   perhaps he was just "documenting" so there would be no question about   their dataset (replacing with all + current rather than adding a   separate dataset with just current)
                    Laura to check DOIs on the 2012 dataset and 2013 dataset (related to the whole immutability issue)
                     FOLLOW-UP:  The DOIs are unique for the 2012 and 2013 datasets.  The  2012 data has been deleted.  :(  This is a case where it would have been really nice to have replication turned on and have a replica of the  2012 dataset preserved out there somewhere.  Something to consider in the future.  2012 data is included in the 2013 dataset, but the specific version of the 2012 data that a user may have previously accessed is no  longer available.
                    (see how NPN does data too)
                     FOLLOW-UP:  NPN has 6 datasets for years 2008-2013.  Each new year's  worth of data will be in its own dataset, i.e. a separate dataset for  2014.

        2. Status of upcoming MNs
        
        Future
