Time	Item	Who	Notes
	announcements * rollout announcements: every announcement followed by new newsletter subscriptions * ARKS at IIIF Conference * Full session: Association of IIIF and ARK Protocols for Efficient Identification and Organization of Data. Examples of Implementation in the Archives Sector with Pleade. Modou DIA and Jean-Luc ARVERS * Lightning talk: "Implementing Presentation v3 in a Jiiify" by Kevin S. Clarke and Mark Matney (UCLA) Mentioned "MinterFactory", which generates unique IDs for manifests. Did anyone else see this and did they specify ARKs?		TS: at IIIF, glad to see lots of people talking about persistence in different ways, eg, remote and local; one group doing end user assessment in DHumanities strongly requires local copies of files; maybe one way to reach them is via "personal digital archiving" TS: might be worth following up with IIIF talks from Modou DIA (Pleade platform) and MinterFactory; and btw both of them pointed people to N2T (instead of arks.org) for ARK info ACTION: review N2T to link it more strongly arks.org; especially the https://n2t.net/e/ark_ids.html page JK: IIIF Archives Community Group chairs stepping down TS: group was supposed to take off the way the IIIF Museums CG took off,     but didn't; Getty and Holocaust Museum did some work on that
	upcoming meetings, calls for papers, submission deadlines * New upcoming meeting page is in the Outreach WG space - based on Fedora calendar. We can look at this regularly for opportunities for presentations. * Call for iPRES lightning talks is open through July 31.		TS: strongly recommend we do a lightning talk to iPres ACTION: John to propose a proposal, eg, "tech spec changes" (Roxana's topic); Tracy happy to co-present MG: given conference fatigue, a lightning talk could be just as effective as a longer paper
	- [x] John Kunze reach out to https://tanc-ahrc.github.io/PIDResources/PID%20functionalities.html		They were listing n2t.net for ARK info instead of arks.org.
	duty roster of folks from all working groups to deal with contact form and info@arks.org email * eg, June 22, "Hi, i am interested in using ARK identifiers, I will apply for a NAAN code. I wanted to know how I can use N2T as a resolver once I have my NAAN. Are there any costs to pay for the resolver service?" * one WG member is retiring; do we have enough people for Outreach?		TS: For support questions, is there a way to engage the ARKs forum in the answers; hard to see a duty roster working for Outreach JK: the June 22 example feeds into the basic question, which is in the FAQ category TS: people who are building local minters and resolvers could answer some of the harder tech questions -- can we recruit some of them to join a working group? ACTION: ask Tech WG about tech respondents to general tech inquiries MG: summer may not be the best time to recruit, but could work to send recruitment drive message to Outreach and ARKs-forum TS: has there ever been a meeting of all the groups? sometimes it's fuzzy what our group is "reaching out" about; it would help to learn what the other groups are doing at an "all hands" meeting
	institutional categories * retrospective - Chloé's analysis * prospective - should we add a category (eg, with pick list) to new request form? * need to add "update NAAN" capability * categorization of institutions  - Architecture - Archives - Association (only one) - Bank (only one) - Construction (only one) - Publication - Education : all organizations which have pedagogical content and which are not university - Government agency - IT : organisations that offer services related to new technologies and software - Law (only one) - Library - Media : journalism, TV, press agencies ... - Museum - Music : only 3, maybe we can put it in others categories - Research : all institutes, laboratories and foundations that are not universities - University		JK: interested in saving this work for later consideration on how to take advantage of it ACTION: TS to work on simplifying the list
	Other		TS: how to do branding; some people want branding MG: why? can it be solved by education rather than branding change? JK: frequently asked question, with two-part answer
