3. Upcoming XAB activity (John Towns )
Previously:
Discussion:
- February 16, 2022 (1-hour Zoom call): any topics?
- April 13, 2022-moving to one-hour Zoom call (not in-person)
- Typically review program plan for next year, but don't have that this year. No substantive topics to warrant having a full day in-person meeting (unless ACCESS awards are announced by then)
- Remaining meetings: Friday, August 5 and Friday, June 24 (one-hour Zoom calls)
- Recognition of XAB member contributions?
- Might do something at PEARC or SC. More will likely be at SC than PEARC. Would be nice to bring them in front of staff meeting at PEARC to recognize in front of full staff.
- Invite anyone who has ever been on the XAB back through XSEDE1.
- Prefer to incorporate into staff meeting or something similar instead of having dedicated event.
- Could ask Lisa for her thoughts.
Decisions:
- Cancelling next week's XAB call
- Moving April to one-hour Zoom call instead of in-person
4. Update on Terminology Task Force (Linda Akli )
Previously:
Discussion:
- Scheduling SiteBulb training now–plan to have it soon.
- Planning to submit panel proposal at PEARC22.
- Have a page where they can post info re. SiteBulb. Want to post on wiki–Linda to send to Leslie so it can be linked on the wiki under Project Execution.
- https://inclusivenaming.org/ has industry & others involved. Should an XSEDE rep participate with this? Have word lists, resources, etc. No fee required. Can have someone from task force participate.
- SMT please review and be prepared to share you thoughts at the next meeting.
- If there are requests for topics to have the task force cover at the QM, let Linda know.
- Could task force compile a report prior to end of XSEDE that includes all info to post in IDEALS since the website won't last forever.
- Linda agrees this is a good idea. Planning this.
- Likely other areas of the project that have internal reports they should write to put into IDEALS. Brainstorming session at QM to share ideas re. potential reports and get feedback. Leslie will put a session on the agenda.
- Pieces of final report will also be released separately and can be posted in IDEALS. What all are things we want to release in this way?
Decisions:
5. XSEDE wrap-up session at PEARC (Robert Sinkovits )

- This could be a BoF or a panel where we address questions and concerns that the community has regarding the conclusion of PEARC and transition to ACCESS.
- Tabitha/Shava leading conversation within PEARC22 committee in their role on the tech program committee.
- Note that ECSS is considering a separate panel dealing specifically with ECSS.
