Hi all,
I'm regularly asked if RACF/SDCC is represented on the NPPS leadership team. When I say no I'm sometimes asked why not. I think ideally there would be good liaison connections in both directions. We have our standing 'SDCC news' slot in the NPPS meeting, and regular attendance from several SDCC people including Tony, but since NPPS was formed the 'natural candidates' for liaison have not been advisable ones in my view. Now perhaps that has changed with the arrival of Doug Benjamin in SDCC. He is certainly a friend of NPPS, attends our meetings and group coffees of his own volition, and sees it as a goal to increase collaboration between SDCC and NPPS. He does have an earned bull-in-the-china-shop reputation, which can be good or bad depending on the circumstances. He's driven by the needs of experiments and users first and foremost.
In the early days of NPPS planning we included a coordination team, expanding beyond the leadership team to include a wider circle of liaisons, but in practice this has seemed to me superfluous given the good connections to experiments through the leadership team -- except we miss the SDCC liaison that would surely be included in such a body.
So finally to the point, I'm interested in your view on making Doug a member of the NPPS leadership team. I'm undecided myself as to whether it's a good idea, I will really appreciate your input. At this point all leadership team members represent part of the activities and responsibilities of NPPS. An SDCC rep would be different in nature as a purely liaison role, but it could be useful to the experiments as well as NPPS to have SDCC at the table, emphasising the role of the NPPS leadership team as liaison to the experiments for a spectrum of S&C topics that while focusing on software do touch on computing as well.
