[igrav-steering] Communications chair?

[Ryan Lang]

Hi David,

That would be great!  Thanks so much!  Ideally we can still find someone 
to report to the share-out.

I do think you are underestimating the activity of the group. 
Communications has always been, IMO, poorly defined, and we've had 
discussions on a wide variety of issues each meeting which then go 
nowhere because we don't really have a consistent base of people. (I 
think the people attending the last two IGrav meetings had zero overlap, 
though I could be wrong.)  I'll try to dig up my notes to lead the 
discussion, but a big focus should probably be identifying people who 
have ideas they want to actually do and encouraging them to act on 
them!  Otherwise, there is no formal agenda, but I'll try to draw up 
some highlights tonight.

Cheers,
Ryan
