Notes

1. Participants: Kerstin L.; Jens K.; Anthony K.; Lesley W.; Leslie H.; Simon C.
2. 10:05a Kerstin opened the meeting with five members on the line
3. Kerstin appointed Jens K. as the chairperson
4. Kerstin appointed Leslie H. as the minute taker
5. Jens announces the quorum, after reviewing the statutes for the calling of Extraordinary General Assembly and confirming with the members that are present.
6. Kerstin: Proposes an addition to Item 6: Paragraph 4.2 under Membership, “Members should be working actively with data centers for the purpose of registering IGSNs.”
7. Jens: we received an application for membership from MARUM
   1. Confirmed that MARUM will set up its own registration service. Their main client is the core repository, ODP/IODP/DSDP cores from the Atlantic, Mediterranean and Arctic oceans.
   2. Kerstin: this relationship may revive the IODP and IGSN link. The code sprint in July will address some of these issues.
   3. The confirmation of MARUM was confirmed with an oral vote online.
8. Simon and Lesley updated for their institutions - now seeing the precedent of the MARUM application, they are ready to apply
9. (Simon will be away for 2.5 weeks, but can trigger procedure now.)
10. Kerstin brought up that “active participation” in the statues - if a member fails to attend three General Assemblies in a row, they shall be removed from the list of members. This should be checked up upon. The December meetings are the most important.
11. New draft statutes (sent by email)
    1. Jens reviewed the recent changes
    2. Other changes: 2.2.1 removed the duplicate “providing”
    3. 2.3 The redundant English is a result of translation from German, Jens marked it as “to be edited”
