		one shell account with 10MB disk allocation
		one simple site
		one forum
		one Mailman List.

4. Ann Evans showed us her ideas for a project evaluation/feedback 
questionnaire and agreed to format it to make it shorter and specifically 
relevant for our purposes. Ann will send it to the committee by email.

There was a brief conversation about the RAC's web site and the need for 
linking the project application form with a database so that record 
keeping is In the DCN area of the web (not in Anne's personal account). 
The ideal would be a setup in which a database record was created by each 
project application  submitted by email. The RAC would need to complete 
the record to indicate resources authorized, timelines, and any special 
arrangements.

Adjourned at 8:00 pm
