8. Review of activities at IW10 • While the “Snowpocalypse” raged on the US Mid Atlantic, stranding both Co-Chairs at home, Steve Deal graciously agreed to “shepherd” the meeting. We used LiveMeeting to relatively good effect and were able to conference in some of our European colleagues. • First part of the IW was presentations updating us on topics of interest on which we had had previous presentations. We received presentations from: Donna Rhodes, Anne Bruseberg, Larry Shattuck and Nita Miller, and John Colombi. • We were fortunate to have a great deal of patience and good humor in the room as we worked to iron out the technical kinks in assuring all desiring participant were able to be a part of the group.

9. Review of activities at IS10 • Half day meeting to help people meet and get down to work. • IS focus on the Symposium with less focus on the work for IW. • Began activities to develop project plans for each identified project.
