Community Day proposal from Harvard-Smithsonian April 19, 20, 26 or 27, 2011.
ACTION: Kartik - ask Carol how she wants the selection of Community Days. What will staffing be if we do all of them?
ACTION: Dong Chan - Set up a registration page for Santa Fe?
ACTION: Need web page registrations up and running before AAS so that people can register immediately (by Jan 3rd meeting, a demo).
ACTION (Lyndele): DONE. Add current CV Community Days to NAASC work calendar.
We need to keep track of where we are going for colloquia => how, where
KS: There is a wiki page created to do this here. But since the Twiki keeps eating my edits I also created a google doc which anyone can edit using this link
KS: Started to put the Talking Points memo on Google Docs here - viewable at this link (not editable by others).
ACTION: (Lyndele): DONE. add tracking wiki; add link at Calendar page
ALMA 3-hour session at UCIrvine Extragalactic conference (Al organizing our presence)
Crystal will not be able to stay for session
Initial Powerpoint loaded to the wiki here - for talks that people may give.
Important: If you use portions of Alison's talk, make sure that you aren't using something that is not freely available for distribution
Discussion of tutorial info/registration pages
Kartik suggests development of a 1-hour long mm/submm tutorial at training events; most people will know little about radio-astronomy. If anyone wants to help, contact Kartik.
ACTION: Kartik: ask Carol if/when person is coming to help prepare radio-astronomy tutorial/curriculum development.
ACTION: Need a detailed agenda for 2-day training sessions (prioritized list). The Victoria one-day session will be model for in-house sessions; will include evaluation. Example: Santa Barbara may want more information about radio-astronomy.
