Next Working Group Meeting

Innovation Awards
- This year's awards have been awarded! Here's the blog post announcing the winners: http://blogs.loc.gov/digitalpreservation/2013/06/and-the-winner-is-announcing-the-2013-ndsa-innovation-award-winners/
- The awards will be presented at #digpres13, during lunch on Wed 7/24. Each winner will give a very brief talk and will get a plaque and mug (and all had their travel/lodging covered).
Innovation Interviews
- Pending interviews are noted above
- A reminder that anyone is welcome to do an interview. The project google doc has all the information you need including examples, ideas, and sample questions:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WVLg5yBBkzNa5moriTaKB7w8MwEYnEmYJ5eYGXf9EN8/edit
- #digpres13 might be a good place to corral folks for interviews if you see an interesting project or presentation
Digital Stewardship Curriculum
- Jefferson will report back on the digital stewardship curriculum panel at #digpres13
- Trevor will write up Kickstarter idea
- We will discuss potential outcomes on the next call
Levels in Use
- There have been a lot of recent examples of folks using the Levels of Preservation guidance. Let's talk to them and write a white paper about it!
- Some noted use cases: Rhizome, USGS, ARTstor, Metaarchive (newspaper project), Vienna University of Technology (Meg/Andrea talked to them)
- Ping NDSA-All asking for additional use cases
- Jefferson will work on getting a list of use cases and a team together to do some interviews and turn it into a paper.
Digital Stewardship Innovation Challenge
- Lots of challenges out there these days (x-challenge; supercomputing challenge); bar is low enough (threshold attainable) to make this open-ended and doable
- Write-up of the idea was sent around to the list, pre-call
- Would be an ongoing challenge, with evolving areas of focus
- Could combine jury with Innovation Awards jury/team
- Entries are written up as short papers about how people are running with the challenge
- The difference between this and the award the challenge is ideally about spurring new work instead of recognizing work that happened already
- Other difference is it is research/project based, not people based like Inno Awards
- Needs to contain a picture or graphical representation
- Would be wise to link challenges directly to topic areas in the forthcoming National Agenda document (or a subset of 3-4 of those topics)
- Challenge should spur work in certain areas; work/projects are positioned in response to challenge
- Challenge award can help projects get funding
- We (NDSA Innovation WG) are explicitly issuing the challenge
- Iteration question: could larger projects "check-in" at certain scheduled deadlines?
- Time question: how often is the challenge issued?
- Scope question: how conceptual/idea oriented vs. how a demonstrable finished project oriented; "proposed" research or "proof of concept"?
- Scope question: ideation or prototype?
- Lead time question: depends on scoping; frequency will depend on what sort of requirements or level of completion we expect of submissions
- Narrowness was a problem with this idea in the past
- Jane and Trevor will refine elements and schedule an off-month call to hone idea
Digital Preservation Q&A Forum
- After the death of the Digital Preservation Stack Exchange (and the LIS one too), there has been widespread community interest in finding another platform for hosting a Q&A site.
- Some folks at NDSA-NYC meeting were interested in chipping in on this effort.
- There has been twitter chat with UK & European folks also interested in this effort (for those interested Andy Jackson has created "zombie" versions of the now-defunct sites: http://anjackson.github.io/zombse/)
- There has also been talk on the Code4Lib listserv about the DP or LIS SE sites
- Jefferson will contact all the interested parties (NYC, Innovation folks, UK/Euro folks) and arrange a skype/call/whatever to figure out next steps and a plan-of-action
National Agenda document
- Will be released in conjunction with #digpres13 on July 23.
NDSA/NDIIPP Summer Meeting
- July 23-25 - last day will be CurateCamp Exhibition
- Innovation WG happy hour potential after the poster session on Tuesday.
Next Working Group Meeting
- Monday September 9, 2-3pm EST
- First Monday of Sept. is a holiday so note our call will be on the 9th!
