We are a working group who needs to become a standing committee

Charter Template

  • Dina will continue as Chair

  • Team will consider if they can support as Co-Chair

  • Team thinks someone from ACO should be EC Sponsor

 

Christine preview the continued work for the Getting Started content:

Home - Access

Discussed:

  • Science Gateways are ok to play down right now - that integration isn’t quite ready

  • Putting metrics back into landing page blocks

    • we can ultimately add a third row if needed

  • Will combine the second and third sections

Next Steps

  • After next round of revisions by Q, Nathan to loop in Allocations site developer so we can compare

Previous notes:

  • Nathan showed new Allocations landing page

    • We like the stats - could this be on other pages? ACO landing page?

    • mentioned a list of nine steps might seem a lot to “get started.”

  • Andrew suggested group eligibility and account creation steps together and the resources and allocations steps together

  • We also want to make the color blocks linkable

  • JP noted Science Gateways should be grouped with the RP block and suggested that block move to the far right position as the smallest audience

  • The team generally felt this was a good direction, but a list of steps was still needed

  • We decided to not include Science Gateway information in the list of “tools” since this program’s story is not completely understood. We can revisit this at our next meeting.

  • Some discussion on where to include PI’s. We can revisit this at our next meeting.

New Users

  • Possibly have a “join” button next to login to very quickly drive new users to a page that then guided them

Christine shared layout with “Get Started” in the “Welcome to ACCESS” box on access-ci.org hero image

Andrew suggests we promote that it’s FREE in a bigger sense than we have to date

JP brought up that not all new visitors are researchers; we also need to address cyberinfrastructure providers such as RPs

Andrew mentioned there will soon be a tool Support is building to help new users identify the best possible resources for their project

Review guidelines and bring thoughts to next meeting

  • Need to decide on EC sponsor and Chair, Co-chair.

  • Can we asynchronously add thoughts to the Charter template by 10/11?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Review Decision Tracker

 Action items

  • @Tolbert, Nathan L to run dropping “My” from “My Allocations” in post-login menu (team was concerned it would be confusing, but worth a try) (approved by allocations team)

  • @Dina Meek Code of Conduct - Dina working on reviewing some discrepancies.

  • All remove intermediate log on pages so logging in takes visitor directly to CILogon page

  • All change Hex Value per 7/19 notes (in GitHub - noted at top)

  • Icicle video - Support might be able to create something along these lines - but perhaps next phase of “How to ACCESS” - and/or help set up video templates for researchers who want to share how ACCESS assisted with their research

 

 

 Decisions

  • Team thought it would be best, for now, to go to a landing page that shows you’ve been logged out

  • @John-Paul Navarro would interface with the Identity group to ensure their site matches the rest

  • Copyright line can be removed as long as @Dina Meek has documentation that ACO leadership approved
