    • on re-deployment, we should have the "OOR-sandbox" label and the licensing correct
      • Tejas advised that the new install way be up later today
    • Peter: when everyone is comfortable with the new install, we will remap the DNS to call that <oor-01.cim3.net> so the url would stay the same as before.

    • (from previous meeting discussions:) what role can OOR (would want to) play?
      • Mike: "OOR" as a means/tool to educate
    • Mike: if outreach and "educating the public" is part of the agenda, the folks who used to be on W3C's Best Practices and Deployment Working Group and Education and Outreach Interest Group will be good candidates to engage

    • Discussion:
      • we can suggest that everything (for the summit) should be ontology based, and then offer the OOR-sandbox to be a platform used by the summit participants
      • we could offer content (course module and/or training material) on ontology repositories and registries
  • Funding and proposals
    • Ken Baclawski submitted an proposal to STCI, jointly with Peter P. Yim and MikeDean.
