Dear Task Group
The updated report and appendices are now online:
http://www.gbif.org/resource/82958
It looks as though they will be ready for the CBD COP as well - Dmitry
could you update us on this?
Many, many thanks everyone. I am at a conference in Fremantle at the moment
- and look forward to browsing the final product when I get back.
All the best
Melodie

Dear Greg, John, Shyama, Varos, Quentin and Dmitry
I have discussed GEO BONs activities with some of you. I have taken the
liberty of listing our 'gap analysis' project - to be led by Greg - as a
project under GEOBON's activities on developing the Species Distributions
EBV (SD_EBV) -- there is a specific invasions activity that forms part the
work of this group.
The only implications of listing the project here is that everyone knows we
are doing the work, we can benefit by the networks and links involved and
take advantage/piggy back on GEO BON meetings etc (we will acknowledge them
too). In this way we are aligning our work with the greater cause. Quentin,
Dmitry and Donald are already involved with GEO BON - as is GBIF. Once the
work is done, we also get to distribute via GEO BON channels.
The doc hasn't been circulated yet, so let me know if you have any
concerns. I have also added you to the Species Populations/SD_EBV mailing
list so that you will receive a copy of the relevant document, provide
input and become part of the community. PLEASE let me know if you would
prefer me to take your name off the list - we can do so at any point.
Many thanks
Melodie

Dear Task Group
I have sent the final version of the report and appendix to Dmitry and his
team for formatting - you can see these dates 12 November on the G Drive if
you want to, although no further changes will be made unless critical.
Greg pointed out that we had not included anything in the report about our
plans and planned papers/analysis going forward. Because the report will be
made public I thought it would be best not to commit ourselves to anything
in the report - also because our mandate as a TG ends with submission of
the report. However, we do want to inform GBIF about these activities so I
have summarised them in the cover letter that will be submitted with the
report.
Attached is the draft cover letter if you would like to give any input on
it.
Almost there now
Many thanks
Melodie

Dear Task Group
Many thanks for all your comments and edits on the two documents. I will
take them offline for a final read before sending the docs to Dmitry
tomorrow, i.e. I'll take them offline in about 14 hours from now.
You are welcome to e-mail me if you still intend to do any edits
Best
Melodie

Dear all
The next version of the final report is on the G Drive with 1 November
date. I haven't had time to do as much as I would have liked to, but it is
pretty much there now I think. Still working on the Appendix B document -
I'll let you know once its up as well.
Thanks
Melodie

Dear Greg, John, Shyama, Varos, Quentin and Dmitry
I am busy working on the final report and appendix documents off line. I
plan to upload the next version in the next 2 days for your final comment.
In the mean time I have e-mailed a few of you with specific questions or
for areas that still need to be completed.
So the plan is:
3 November - I upload the complete draft for your final comments (hopefully
minor)
3-5 November - the team edits/finalises the document online (GDrive)
6 November - I will take the doc offline again, finish it up and send it to
Dmitry for the communication team to format.
Let me know if this is k, and e-mail me any additional material or changes
that you may have in the mean time.
Quentin, please could you add your Oxalis picture with a legend to the same
folder as the logo link that Dmitry sent.
Muchas gracias
Melodie
