Hi. A member of CORSA has probably previously reached out to you to ask about your project's interest in software foundations and sustainability metrics. If you are not interested in open source software foundations, you can stop reading now,

</style>Hi.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A member of CORSA has probably previously reached out to you to ask about your project's interest in software foundations and sustainability metrics.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>If you are not interested in open source software foundations, you can stop reading now, and I apologize for bothering you.</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>At this time, I want to let you know that we are starting a Foundations Forum as part of <a href="https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://cass.community__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!fSbeS84ENiOT4tZ-xXDh9bSWbndr7wIdtyX9Jqp9_11T0gpRFybpinPnwrf4Sb12cHOqscT8jCqHvWW3jLIjEg$">CASS</a>.
</div>
<div><br>
</div>

<div>We'll have the first of our foundations forum meetings at noon CT on Wednesday Aug 28. Connect via</div>
<div><a href="https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://illinois.zoom.us/j/84019968610?pwd=yB9nwobAPnv7eAolvIrn2E1BZoMrIH.1__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!fSbeS84ENiOT4tZ-xXDh9bSWbndr7wIdtyX9Jqp9_11T0gpRFybpinPnwrf4Sb12cHOqscT8jCqHvWWj53m6Ug$">https://illinois.zoom.us/j/84019968610?pwd=yB9nwobAPnv7eAolvIrn2E1BZoMrIH.1</a></div>
<div>Meeting ID: 840 1996 8610, Password: 076304</div>
<div>One tap mobile: +13126266799,,84019968610# US (Chicago)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As mentioned previously, we'll generally try to have in these meetings: a) a short talk (e.g., update from a foundation, experience from an SSO with a foundation), b) discussion on a predetermined topic, and c) general announcements and discussion (related
to open source foundations)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyone can suggest agenda items, or topics, etc. - so please let me know if you have ideas. This first meeting could include brainstorming about future organization, or I could talk about Parsl's desire to and process of joining NumFOCUS. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Meetings will be open to anyone who wants to join - so please feel free to share this</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Meetings will be recorded and posted on youtube, with links to them from a part of the CORSA website.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Meetings will be announced via the CORSA email list and the CASS #general and #wg-foundations slack channels</div>
</blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
If you are interested in knowing about future meetings, please join the CORSA mailing list (see the bottom of <a href="https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://corsa.center/__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!fSbeS84ENiOT4tZ-xXDh9bSWbndr7wIdtyX9Jqp9_11T0gpRFybpinPnwrf4Sb12cHOqscT8jCqHvWW1cXyJlg$">https://corsa.center/</a>)
and/or join the #wg-foundations channel in the CASS Slack (I can invite you from inside slack if needed)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And finally, if you would like a meeting between CORSA and your project about foundations, we can also schedule one - just let me know.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Thanks,</div>
