We are still looking for owners for AERA-B, AERA-E, and AERA-H.
Strong preference will be given to owners at BITNET nodes running
CMS systems.  However, being an owner does not mean having to
house the list at one's own home node AT FIRST.

Those present at the meeting made the following recommendations:

1) Keep the ERL-L list open for discussion

2) Moderate the AERA list.  The vote was 18 in favor of moderating
   the AERA list and 1 opposed.  Don Soucy, Dan Blaine, and Chong Yu
   volunteered to help share the responsibilities for moderating the
   list. (4/11/94  NOTE: Gene Glass will moderate the AERA list.)


3) Division chairs or newsletter editors could be asked to upload
     topics on the appropriate lists.

4) List owners could send out short editorial precises telling
   what is available as GET's from the archives.

5) Recommendations for the Electronic Networking SIG:

   a) Start an AERA GOPHER. Jeff Hechtle at Illinois State
     University offered to house it.  ENET SIG will work on
     planning it.

   b) Put the following on the GOPHER:
      Convention program
      Information about regional associations
      Information about SIG's
      Papers accepted for the program (we need legal advice
           regarding ownership)
      Capability to telnet to real-time interaction

   c) We need a continuing ER column which would have the basic
      commands. In addition, this column should describe
      topics such as:
       Case histories of how the Internet furthers research
       Resource availability (e.g. open libraries, ERIC, WWW)
       How to find Internet ID's
       How to start and manage a list

   d) At the next convention, ENET SIG needs to have live or
     video or hypercard or slide show demonstrations of what is
     out there (e.g. GOPHERs)

To join the Electronic Networking SIG:
     contact Mike Young MYOUNG@UCONNVM.UCONN.EDU

To help the SIG tackle the above projects
     contact Jean Pierce P30JWP1@MVS.CSO.NIU.EDU

To become a list owner (with a goal of moving the
        list away from Arizona State eventually),
