<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">CSSM Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">Attached please find a preliminary draft of the CSSM and Cloud Computing BOF meeting schedule for the upcoming fall meetings in Toulouse. At this point the schedule is mostly about identifying the
available time slots for the CSSM working group and for the cloud computing BOF. The CSTS working group plans on meeting Tuesday through Thursday of the meeting week, but I will have to wait until next week to further coordinate with the CSTS working group
chair, Holger, for any further consideration with regard to joint meetings between the working groups other than the plenary sessions identified.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">There are a few items to note:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">1) a joint session with the DDOR WG has been tentatively agreed upon with the DDOR WG Chair for Wednesday of the meeting week<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">2) the cloud computing BOF will require some dedicated time during the meetings and we can discuss how the CSSM WG can proceed during the cloud computing BOF times at our
teleconference on September 13 – separate meeting rooms have been requested<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">3) agency surveys with regard to implementation of standardized service management has been scheduled for late Thursday morning and I believe JAXA will be making a presentation
and would like to have a discussion in this regard. You may wish to recall that we have an action from the spring meetings to provide information to the best extent we can with regard to agency implementation plans at the fall meetings. I encourage everyone
to provide inputs to the extent possible. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">4) The boot camp will be held on Friday morning – the planning reflects no CSSM or Cloud BOF meetings at this time in order to provide the opportunity for everyone who wishes
to attend the boot camp to do so. Personally, I look forward to attending the boot camp and would like to take the opportunity to encourage everyone else to attend.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">5) The CSS Area closing plenary is scheduled for Friday afternoon – if possible, please plan to attend – it will very likely be concluded no later than 15:00.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">I plan to have a more complete list of topics for discussion with regard to meetings planning at the September 13 teleconference, but please do not hesitate to note any items you think would benefit
from hopefully a well-attended face-to-face set of meetings in Toulouse.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">Looking forward to literally seeing most of you for the first time in quite some time (and some for the first time), in Toulouse!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">Best regards,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">-Erik<o:p></o:p></span></p>
