* MNA2.2.3 - Dissemination material (MS13) 

  Emidio reminds of the milestone due by the end of the month. Pina

  agrees on providing a draft by next week. The milestone will cover

  project Y2 (May 2011 - April 2012). The new template produced by PO

  has to be used; Emidio will send the template to Pina.  

* EMI TC2 tutorials

Kathryn will close the feedback forms and circulate the results by this

week. The training materials will be uploaded on the web site. 

* GridKa School

Emidio asks Kathryn to write an abstract for the EMI session at

GridKa. Kathryn asks whether the abstract has to cover other

middleware than gLite. Emidio answers that there have been not

requests for ARC, while JSC is managing the second EMI session,

covering both EMI and non-EMI UNICORE's features. 

* ISC12 promotional material

Pina resumes the promotional material for ISC12 : t-shirt, polo (EMI

and ScienceSoft). Pina asks if we should take something else. Emidio

comments that bookmarks had been quite successful in Munich, so we should think of

other low cost gadget, while t-shirts had been "too" successful, and

we should consider a more rational way to distribute them, rather then

first come first served. Emidio proposes to reserve t-shirts for surveys or

web game participants. Pina comments that, respect to Munich, we have

less control, for instance we don't have participants list. Emidio

answers that we can use the spaces that ISC is renting on the

conference web site. Pina will check if these webspaces are still available.      

Pina also reminds that CHEP is close (even earlier than ISC12), and we

should start planning it.

* NA2 budget

The NA2 budget should be updated accounting latest expenses. Emidio

will invite Pina and PO for a joint phone call. 

* Web Articles

Release article has been accepted by PEB, and Nadine has provided a

graphic; the article will be published Wed 11. 

Next article will be about Science Soft, Emidio will provide context

to Beatrice in this week. 

* EMI TC2 web game results

Andrea has provide a report of the game, including number of

partecipants, and statistics on the answers provided. 

* Parallel session at AHM

Emidio asks if there is interest for a parallel session at All Hands

Meeting. Pina and Kathyrn are positive about that; Pina comments that a

face to face meeting would be really needed to push activities forward and

have more participations, in terms of input and ideas. Emidio asks to

send him possible input for the session by this week.
