4. Discussed how to link to off line resources if we choose
5. Pam mentioned Chial and Flahive's Project SIMPLE resources and suggested they would be valuable and unique resources to include. Mike to provide some feedback about whether they can put some portion online (even just a demo), and what cost to user would be.
6. Pam will synthesize short set of guidelines for submitting materials, and post on the CAPCSD MERLOT blog.
7. Pam made the decision to go with the KASA keyword format, and we can decide if others are needed later on. For now, Pam to further test the keywords for redundancy, clarity, etc., then disseminate for final comments.
