Potential topics for the F2F Mtg (for consideration):
 
      - What is the goal of the Jan F2F meeting? How should it be structured? Do we need to spend
      sometime getting everyone up to speed with SW examples/possibilities? Should we have
      break-out session? Is there a goal that should be addressed in a post-meeting report?

      - Are there sub-domain themes we should identify to organize ongoing activties? e.g., eHR,
      OMICS (pathways + functional genomics + bioinformatics), clinical trial data management
      and analyses, translational medicine, scientific publishing, etc. 

     - How should we proceed with discussing core ontologies? Do we need a "wish-list" that
     relates to identifed current ontologies and CV's? Should we develop a coordination plan with
     National Centers for Biomedical Computing?

    - Any other items to be considered?


4) Teleconference schedule

Proposal is currently Thursdays at 11 am ET every other week. Does this time work for  
everyone?

What frequency works best?

Possible option: set up WBS system to collect input from group members
