      1. (Towns) Meta comment: I think we need to move away from using “supercomputing” and “HPC” as terms as much as possible. We are finding many who would benefit from these resources, do identify with the terms and think this is all for someone else. This is particularly true in new communities we are trying to engage and this tends to push them away.

        1. Dina: “Research Computing and Data” is what the CaRRC group is proposing

        2. Is this something we could bring to the community?

        3. Using more inclusive terms helps us be more inclusive over all - this is something we should look at

          1. work on a story and start a discussion

      2. Tagline - announcing at the quarterly

        1. EC “voting”

        2. John will make sure we have a consensus before the announcement at the Quarterly Meeting

    8. @Shannon Bradley

      1. First Draft done -

      2. Would love feedback
