@John Towns
checking end date of the project vs how it displays on NSF website
John has not had a response back from NSF yet
discuss transcription on for this meeting
Misha turned on transcription as a test - and it probably is you have to transcribe individually and save locally
IDSS Call from NSF
there may be resource providers who want to be part of ACCESS
not sure how this relates to ACSS - part of it or replaces?
May see some non ACSS providers from this
Amit - this may be more related to storage
@Chuck P
doing prep work for SC/WG section at quarterly
EAB meeting tomorrow
Discussion about 1 on 1 team meetings at quarterly meeting
@majumdar
Eval SC meeting - Dave will share summary report with EC soon
survey got 20,000 responses - all may not be good
plan to make next survey under 5 mins - have to choose questions
should each track do a short survey - should there be a pop up available if they want to
discussion on list being more focused - maybe focus on the support list which might get a better response and is less than 20000
Possibly use net promoter to do recommendations for ACCESS
staff survey - some people may be only 10% on ACCESS and are not wanting to fill out survey
RP survey - how to get more responses
John - for XSEDE they never had problems with getting responses - what is the difference? what was being done then that is not being done now?
likes a more focused list
we do want broader inputs - but not sure how to get this
Cindy - since we are in the last year - how much time to invest vs last year of project
