This is an opportunity to suggest areas on which we may put particular emphasis for 1999. What this means is that we would more actively solicit demos in these areas, help identify funding sources, host workshops, and put on sessions at meetings. This could be as simple as providing literature and signs to I2 members demonstrating applications at other venues to organizing and soliciting demos. We will have the member meetings, for which we need to put together sessions.
Days are one means.
The AAAS holds various workshops where we could get the advanced applications message to researchers in different disciplines. Robert Rich will describe those programs. And, George Brett has an idea of how we can build a database of application examples. George will describe that along with the efforts underway in one region of the I2 community I2 Days are being held at many member institutions. There is a lot of interest in international advanced applications collaboration.
