  1. Draft was available for 45 day public review, and no input was received.
  2. Comments that the work is good and will be useful.
  3. Comment that this work is expected to become more relevant and will be valuable.
3. Motion carried
Consider: Proposed fellowship program supporting independent volunteers.
1. Review: http://kantarainitiative.org/pipermail/lc/2010-September/001145.html
2. Comment that this award is designed to recognize contributors who are not otherwise compensated (or expect to be compensated) for their contributions.
3. Discussion about whether this is proposed as a merit-based award.
  1. Consensus is that this is not strictly merit-based, per se, and does not require the same level of evaluation as the MVP award (which is open to compensated contributors).
  2. Consensus is that some additional clarity is necessary around how the LC evaluates nominated contributors.
4. Discussion about whether there is a need to limit the number of nominated contributors.
  1. Consensus is to remove the limitation of one nomination per workgroup, but to maintain the limitation of the LC awarding them per quarter (to minimize amount of time spent considering them during LC calls).
5. Discussion about the title "Volunteer Fellow"
  1. Con: The term "volunteer" in the title may minimize it's impact in a resume.
  2. Pro: The term "volunteer" in the title my illustrate philanthropic work in a resume.
  3. No consensus reached: Further discussion required.
6. Consensus continues to be in support of the proposal.
7. ACTION ITEM: Trent to draft an updated version taking the discussion into account.
Budget Discussion:
1. 2010 Close-Out
  1. Group Leadership need to go through their records and respond whether their budget allocated for 2010 was spent (in whole or in part) and if any remains, if they intend to spend it in 2010.
  2. ACTION ITEMS:
    1. Trent to find out which Groups received allocated budget in the 2010, and contact the leaders of the Groups for information.
    2. Trent and Joni find how much was paid out to date to reconcile the numbers.
2. 2011 Expectations
  1. Call for Group leadership to consider what work they may need funded in 2011.
  2. Paris meeting will discuss requested allocations.
  3. Similar to the 2010 budget process, it is unlikely that the LC will consider (and unlikely that the BoT would approve) allocating KI budget to support travel of Participants (or otherwise fund Participants to work on KI projects except in rare circumstances as indicated by precedent).
AOB: What is the status with NSTIC?
1. Comments that there was a lot of feedback received during the public review and that it will take a while to get through it.
2. They are likely reaching out to individual groups for input as they process the responses, rather than hold additional rounds of public comment periods.
3. The next version for consideration is expected to be publicly circulated in early 2011.
Adjourned at 5:26pm MDT
