=== 4th of June 2013 - 15:00 - Brainstorming - at GFI ===

Brainstorming for future ResClim/our subgroup activities

Minutes:
# Burning issues, new people?
## Nothing on fire, although we found the 'stor møterom' less violent than the HH room 
# List of ideas for discussion
## We were happy with the initial ideas, more discussion followed about the "modelling" and "climate science - policy" classes
## For core ideas for the classes (initial plan), pros and cons, some lecturers see
### Short action plan to make it happen, presons to make it happen
#### Aleksi will start pushing the '[[Modelling_class/workshop|modelling]]' class forward
#### Mathew will start pushing the '[[Climate_science_-_policy_class|climate science - policy]]' class forward
# Wrap it up, present the plan (15-30 min)
# Next meeting, organizer
## We decided that for now on we will keep the sessions really informal, the organizer will call everyone together and reserve a room. We can discuss things if there is something to go trough, and whether there is something or not we'll go for a beer afterwards 
## The next meeting will then be in July, probably at NERSC, Tobias will be the organizer

Agenda & minutes, decisions marked with A

# Why are we here: short introduction to the idea (by Aleksi) <br /><br />
# Discussion
#* Should there be two separate groups for PhD's and Post Docs
#* A: Yes, two groups with partly joint meetings
#** Should we just divide immediately, if we think this is the case?
#* Who should be involved? (whole BCCR community?)
#* A: Yes, this should be ResClim subgroup involving all the ResClim students in Bergen
#* What kind of format should we have?
#** Presentations, problem solving events, 'what went wrong' -presentations, brainstorming events?
#** All these are good ideas. Meeting frequency should be something in order of 2-3 in a semester (~once in two months). It was decided that the next meeting will be a brainstorming event
#* Role of the webpage: gather information about all the practicalities (put the 'How to survive' -file from the old PhD forum online) <br /><br />
# Core group?
#* Since nothing works without responsible persons we should probably decide who want to be in charge of organizing meetings etc.
#* A: We decided that in each meeting we will choose a person responsible for sending around emails for the next meeting
#** This way we will spread the workload and hopefully keep the task of the 'responsible' person as a low level thing so that people don't feel that it takes too much of their time<br /><br />
# Next 'meeting'
#* Brainstorming event and beer afterwards, 4th of June
