      2. bring working groups in: tentative order

        1. SGX3 - if there is something to report

        2. CGC - next priority

        3. User profile group

        4. Eval group - not currently ready

  3. Review Action Items

    1. Archived ACO Action Tracker | :check_mark: ACO Meetings To Do Items

  4. Discussion of updated Feedback Annual Report from Lisa K

  5. Quarterly meeting planning

    1. Interest in an agenda development group seems slim

    2. Lavanya, Shawn, Aaron, Stephen, Tom - meeting comes next

      1. Notes - virtual meeting - any breakout room should have a facilitator

      2. Cindy can help with technical input

    3. Dina’s team - agenda idea - every meeting have 1 or 2 session where you take a look inside ACCESS

      1. how does ticketing system work

      2. STEP program

      3. How does a recommender system work

      4. etc.

  6. Year 3 budget

    1. Will need to request funds in a supplement to cover travel for meetings in Year 3

      1. Note from NSF meeting on 4/8: We still need to discuss a potential travel supplement for in-person quarterly like last year

        1. We will address where this stands after re-budgeting numbers are confirmed on if we need to submit another supplement or if what is remaining enough

        2. Note from EC meeting: 4/16 Supplement for meeting travel was to cover year 2 - if we want additional support for this will need to submit a request soon (next in person meeting is in September)

          1. there needs to be a case for why it needs to be in person - where everyone is included and people are not waiting in hallways waiting for people to have meeting

          2. Can we request for the remaining 3 years at once? Sharon will check with finance
