New Action Items

[AI] ChrisP will reach out to Nicole about presenting the FIM4R response at REFEDs meeting on Monday Oct 15, 2018

DISCUSSION

FIM4R  Recommendations Progress   

• FIM4R paper : https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1296031
  
  
• FIM4R Assessment public coordination page: CACTI-Discuss-Topic-Internet2 FIM4R Assessment
  
• Please review the CACTI draft document and the FIM4R spreadsheet for the discussion. 
  
• This spreadsheet is our main aggregation point for responses
  

• https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wEKFiqDyZ9Z6q8i8QKGTcQXdwMrxr4w1LKkXK_kDzII/edit?usp=sharing
  
• Rob spoke about FIM4R on the Component Architects call of Monday Sept 17, 2018.  Nick Roy provided some input. Warren Curry added some input in the “TIER Architecture” column of the spreadsheet. 
  

• David Walker has been working with Heather Flanagan and InCommon TAC around FIM4R response.
  
  • TAC will finalize the TAC input to the FIM4R response after the next TAC call.
    
• ChrisP reached out to  CTAB re  input to FIM4R.  
  
• Jill reviewed the Draft FIM4R Assessment doc being prepared    It was agreed that CACTI should aim to do prioritization of the feedback collected
  

• • If CACTI provides 30 recommendations to Kevin, then he and T&I leadership will need to figure out what to do.
    
  • Would look at time to completion, impact and resources intensity.
    
  • Would try to look at a blended portfolio, then vet that plan with the community
• It will be very helpful if CACTI does some of this work before presenting their report to Kevin

• CACTI could even conduct a vote on which are highest priorities. 
• What are the most acute issues we should be working on as a community? 

•  Impact on large versus small collaborations is significant: 
  
• larger research collaborations can take care  of themselves and their IAM needs better than the smaller collaborations.  
  

• Might be helpful to indicate how hard it would be to accomplish the recommendations.
• In next two weeks, the FIM4R doc team will finish listing gaps and recommendations. 
•  Oct. 2 CACTI will start evaluation and prioritizing.
