After the workshop, it became clear that not only were there a significant number of facilities fromt he meeting who wanted to participate, but quite a number of facilities that were unable to attend were mentioned as important to have particpate. This raises the question of how best to proceed. a tele/video conference with that many nodes and people is not likely to be productive, yet reducing representation seems to defeat the purpose of the group. Some suggestions so far are:
- divide into subgroups of no more than 6 or 7 (probably high for a vido link and a bit high for real discussions). This would require some kind of uber group to facilitate the communication between groups. Two ways to do this:
* Make up of groups is set radomly. * Regional groups are formed with the uber group having a representative from each of the regional groups
