Suggested topics for discussion

TopicRequested byTime required (estimate)Notes
Local Group TopicWil O'Mullane45minChance for local non DMLT members to share a topic of interest/worry and discuss directly with DMLT - could be one of the decision making topics or something else. If nothing is offered then this would not be on the agenda. Perhaps not so obviously needed in Tucson .. but at other locations I would like to allow a channel for DM people to quasi formally discuss issues that worry them or that they think we should be looking into.
Science Website1 hrIn the August 2017 presentation on DM/Community Interaction Strategy to the SAC, we stressed the need for having a maintained website geared towards scientists with key LSST numbers, documents, notes, and quantities (see slide #12 in the presentation). I think we need to understand how we assign responsibility for organization and maintenance of such a website, its initial setup, and the interaction and overlap with the overall lsst.org website that the Communications Team maintains. May be good to have this discussion F2F with the comm's team while you're in Tucson.
