Subject: RE: Agenda for tomorrows teleconference
All -
It has been a busy week of email discussion on a variety of topics!
So, we will have a full agenda tomorrow for our 11:30 AM EST
teleconference.
Possible agenda items:
1. Discussion of Dave Danko's 3 suggested approaches (See below) for
enhancements to CAP for handling coordinate reference systems. Our
recommendation would result in a change request proposal for a new work item
after CAP 1.0 has been approved.
2. Discussion on RAINS in Oregon and whether we should seek collaboration
with them (at some level)
3. Thoughts on CAP registries and what that means (like implications moving
forward in terms of access to a CRS registry (there is one!)
4. Any other hot topic :-)
Cheers
