Dear All,
Please find attached the notes of our first meeting for the Topic A: Best Practice for Data Discovery. The Notes is also available from this Google Doc.
In summary, we agreed to have an initial investigation of current best practice for data discovery from the following three aspects:

• Data providers/contributors
• Data seekers (consumer)
• Data repositories/data federation/facilitator/integrator

There are leads for each aspect, however your contribution is greatly appreciated.
Information about the next meeting is as follow. I will send calendar invite as well.
Wish you all a wonderful break over the festive season!
Regards,
Anita, Bill, Jeff, Martin, Siri and Ming
