  • IDCC

Bertram: Gave IDCC presentation on YesWorkflow ⇒ next: use of YW in Kurator!? (would go well together with Kurator/P)

• • bibliography management (de-duplication, merging, etc) actors

Bertram: Integration with reference management would be good.

• • opportunity to create an NDS labs project

Bertram: initiative at NCSA to create an environment (as part of the mission) to facilitate groups of tool builders to use some of the resources - might be an opportunity here to run workflows in the environment.

Tim: Not clear that we have an hour's content.

Paul: What we are planning on for SPNHC demo should be good for that (in part explaining output).

Jim: How about after SPNHC.
