Hi LTER site IMs,

Two items:

(1) Recall last month we mentioned EML 2.2 is due out soon. A small,
dedicated handful of volunteers are tackling years of backlogged
enhancement requests. One issue that would be of use to perhaps all LTER
sites is a more precise way of recording the reference, or source, or
identifier for taxonomic classifications. Matt has let us know that if we
can recruit a volunteer to take on this issue, that it may get into the EML
2.2 release. This email is a call for a volunteer. This may be a site IM,
or an investigator.

Please speak up if your group has interest in enhancing the
taxonomicCoverage element in EML 2.2, to add an id. We need a volunteer to
work on this. I will see if a site IM or investigator wants to take this
on. (Referring to issue 141. https://waffle.io/NCEAS/eml?search=141)

(2) Great attendance at yesterday's vtc. Jason posted the notes here:

Thank you Suzanne and Jason for taking and posting notes. And thank you
Wade for leading the productive discussion.
