Notes

Proposed actions

General agreement in principle with actions in Agenda

MIDS

Introduced the concept of working on MIDS in the DWG and how this work would align with the work of the TDWG MIDS Task Group. The work carried out in the DWG would be more focussed on the implementation and practicality of the MIDS elements and this would feed into the TDWG MIDS Task Group work. Started reviewing elements in MIDS Levels 0 & 1 Discussion particularly on elements that may not be required and if there were any elements that were missing at these levels.
