Discussion 

Several of the people on the call were physically at the event. Many others had viewed the webex. A video of the Stanford event is now available at http://www.techamerica.org/nstic We began by hearing from those who were there (Lena, Kaliya and MaryH, also Don??) A key announcement was that the Program Office would be at the Department of Commerce, which is considered a good thing. Key messages from the event included This event appeared to be the first step in an outreach education process. The presenters went out of their way to talk about privacy. The CBS article and others – see http://wiki.idcommons.net/NSTIC seemed to interpret this as a “big brother initiative”. It was noted that there wasn’t any one from the user-centric community on the panel, and that it is important that that voice be included. Kaliya and MaryH are following up on this. It is important to push the user centric point of view. This should come from people with a deliberative community behind them, not vendor representatives. We agreed that we need to
