Dear Bob and Mark

Thank you for your continued support of LTER data management and this process that we are going through to determine the future of LTER IM. It is great to hear that you will continue to seek funding for PASTA developments.

Dear Phillip (and all)

I just wanted to reiterate the our position with regard to the selection process to make sure there is no confusion about where we stand.  We offered to host NIMO at UNM if no other acceptable alternative presented itself.  We are still willing to do so.  However, since there seems to be a number of viable alternatives, we are not planning on submitting the requested documentation.  We will instead focus on the part of NIMO that is of most interest to us and which we are best qualified to address, maintenance and further development of the PASTA software that forms the backbone of the NIS.  We look forward to working with the eventual host institution to prepare the proposal(s) necessary to establish NIMO.  We will also continue to look for other sources of support that might assure the long-term success of the LTER data enterprise.

Please let me  know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Bob

Dear colleagues,







Attached is the site/PI profile template for those institutions that are

willing to host the NIMO administrative function. If you wish to be

considered as a candidate site, please return your completed profile by

18:00 PDT on Wednesday, September 9. I will then distribute these to

everyone in advance of an IMC vote.  Please add your site ID to the

front of the file name, e.g. XXX proposed NIMO host.docx.







I propose that the voting process should identify at least a first and

second choice site so that we have a “plan B” in case negotiations with

a preferred site do not pan out. The first choice site will go forward

to the LTER Executive Board for approval. The vote will be based on one

vote per site, which I think is as fair and equitable as we can make it.

Please let me know if you have an alternative suggestion.







Regards,
