  • David: Needs space, power estimates for IT
  • Joe: Also working with HP initiative, Rick McGeer. Join RENCI effort? Possible
  • Jeff: Did speak with Rick McGeer; perhaps talk again
  • Denise: Room for customization of the racks? e.g., add physical layer measurement equipment
  • Ilia: Yes, will be space. But, funding an issue
