On Wednesday and Thursday, February 25-26, there will be a major live webcast from the Federal Committee on Networking and Information Technology Research and Development (NITRD) in support of their work on development of a five-year NITRD Strategic Plan. The NITRD progam planning comes out of the National Coordination Office (NCO), currently led by Chris Greer, who many CNI-announce readers know from his work with NSF's Office of Cyberinfrastructure and the National Science Board on data preservation, curation and re-use issues; the NCO has been the source of the well-known annual "blue books" that summarize and integrate federal investments in advanced computing, networking and related information technology.
You can find information on the webcast at

I do not have a final agenda of the panel participants at this time, but they will include many prominent leaders in information technology. My understanding is that the presentations will also be archived for viewing.
Clifford Lynch
Director, CNI
