Greetings!    (01)

You and your colleagues are invited to Collaborative Expedition Workshop 
#78, "Potentials and Realities of Open Collaboration and Open Standards: 
Going Green Virtually, Regionally, and Beyond" on Monday, Nov. 3 at the
National Science Foundation. This no fee, half-day organizing workshop
will explore the emerging cyberinfrastructure landscape for robust, 
collaborative organizing, that together with consistent metrics 
(i.e. carbon footprint modeling), and stakeholder-based 
dialogue capabilities will advance "Go Green" initiatives being 
established regionally, virtually, and beyond.     (02)

Building on best practices from international environmental awareness 
communities to on-going state and local efforts, participants will 
have the opportunity to learn and contribute to this challenge of 
unprecedented scale, complexity, and significance to national health, 
economic well-being, and security.    (03)

This workshop will open up dialogue to facilitate "bootstrapping" among 
multiple communities and institutions whose individual and collective 
contributions to shared design challenges will shape our national 
experience of cyberinfrastructure for years to come.     (04)

RSVP: You will need to pre-register for this workshop by sending an email 
to Joan Cole at cole@xxxxxxxxxx  Please indicate whether you plan to
attend in person or remotely.    (05)
