+Agenda:
+
+
+1)  Upcoming software release
+
+Ilia:  
+
++  On track to do committed features
+
+-  Except for Shibboleth
+
++  Made plugins less VM independent.
++  New API to build better policies for substrates, particularly beyond VMs
++  Local (actor) regsitry to see available actors.
+
++  Easy lease cancellation
+
+Hongwei:  Broker interaction features?  e.g., delegate?
+Jeff:  Not committed. (not included in roadmap)
+
+
+1b)  Clearinghouse issues
+
+Need to resend password
+
+Can restart clearinghouse
+Can we reset individul actors (brokers)?  No now;  can this be added?
+
+Probably no need to update clearinghouse code, since latest changes do not affect brokers
+
+When there are issues, enter a ticket
+
+2)  GEC7 demos
+
+Note:  Projects should correct and epand this list.
+
+LEARN:  Use RENCI/BEN's Infinera DTNs for the demonstration of the measurement handler software together with IMF project.  Remote connect to local ORCA;  by GEC8, control LEARN
+
+KanseiGenie:  Instrument Kansei.  For regression analysis of wireless link properties, demonstrate the use of the two testbeds Kansei and NetEye through a unified user interface. 
+
+ViSE:  VLAN connections from sensors, through NLR, to RENCI or EC2.
+
+DOME:  Management interface, 900-MHz radios,...
+
+IMF:  Gather data from BEN, distribute with Pub-Sub system
+
+ORCA/BEN:  Connect multiple sites via NLR, e.g., demo floor to ?
+
+iGENI:  Provisioning two 10Gbps links, Starlight via NLR to RENCI.  Dynamic provisioning of the paths.  Novel high-performance protocols.
+
+iGENI:
+Towards extended Cluster D connectivity.
+Direct fiber from Starlight to Ohio State, and other sites.  
+Will be using QinQ to mitigate numbering issues.
+
+
+3)  NDL workshop
+
+Ilia:  
+ORCA/BEN first to use ontological approach to provisioning, not just network planning.
+Richness of existing tools is an advantage.
+
+NDL workshop after GEC7, 3/18pm.     Explain apporach, advantages.  Use cases.
+To prepare, short webex in early Feb.    All are welcome.  Ilia will send doodle, invite.
+
+
+4)  Issues, problems, concerns
+
+Joe:  Useful to have periodic Cluster D calls, e.g., every two weeks.
+Ilia:  Will plan for every two weeks, perhaps this time on Thursday, send doodle and invite.
+
+Deniz:  Instantiating ORCA in lab, and write 3750 drivers.  Starting with 6509 drivers.  Any other resources?
+Ilia:  There is a template driver, but 6509 driver is perhaps the closest.
+Jeff:  Drivers close to handler.   If switch presents a reasonable interface, then do not need a driver.
+Harry:  How does this work?  What functions where?
+Ilia:  Will send some info.
+Jeff:  High level abstraction is in the handler.
+Harry:  Interested 3750, NEC switches here.
+
+
+
+5)  Interactions between projects and GPO
+
+Harry:  PIs and delegates should input more directly to wiki;  will send instructions.
+Harry:  Will put early agenda for Cluster D meetings on wiki.
