Alex,

I'm interested in joining in on the discussion as well. I don't know what 
the best time would be but I'm at the conference Wednesday through 
Saturday.

Hi all,
 
We (Carrie Currie and I) at PALS had the idea for anyone who is going to 
the  Evergreen Conference next week in Vancover, B.C. that maybe we should 

get together for an informal session to begin discussion about how we 
think cataloging, and more specifically, authorities works and could be 
changed/enhanced/improved on in the future.   
 
We could also discuss the formation of a roadmp ? i.e. what features we 
would want to see developed and when.   Right now things with Authority 
development seem very haphazard, and it would be great to get more 
organization over this area. 
 
Another possible discussion item could be the creation of an Evergreen 
Authorities Task Force to oversee this work, keep track of bugs, submit 
them to the Evergreen community, etc.  It could be made up of mostly 
catalogers, and perhaps a few develops to translate catalog speak.
 
Our thought on potential meeting times could be Wednesday at 11 am 
(opposite the Web Team/Communications Committee meeting), or possibly 
during the time slot of 3 pm (and opposite Contributing Code to 
Evergreen).   We think the Discoveries in Digital Humanities: How 
Evergreen Contributes session was cancelled.
 
Please let us know your thoughts on this idea and if you would be willing 
to meet during the conference and at which times.
 
Carrie Currie and I will both be at the Evergreen conference, the entire 
week.
