===Purpose of call===
*two--way exchange of information, closer communication
*timing so CC can get input in advance of board reporting
*Suggestions for improvement:
**Some technical hurdles were encountered, including poor audio quality and static. Participants should be on mute when not talking.
**A brief round of introductions should be done next time. It was difficult to know who exactly was on the call.
**Could develop a queue or indication system for people wishing to provide feedback. Or each of the people/regions (depending on numbers) could be directly asked by Joi/the call chair if they have something to add at the end, to ensure people are given a small period where they feel it is appropriate to speak up, even if it's to say they don't have anything more to say. (Jessica)
**Maybe a simultaneous text back channel would be useful. (Jessica)
**Michelle: Some of us were logged into the CC Jabber group, although we didn't end up backchanneing there. We could try to use that (Server: conference.jabber.org, Chat room: creativecommons)

===Updates on internationalization Efforts: Joi===
*Overview of internationalization efforts - recent
**Last Aug: consolidated CCi with CC core
***Hopefully already seen efforts to expand participation by many more CC staff **Dec: CC board agrees to accept nominations from international community for 1-2 board positions (more on this below)
**Dec: CC board establishes advisory board, members will not be limited to US (or lawyers, for that matter) (more on this below)
**Dec: CC announces plans for small-grant program for affiliates and others (more on this below)

===Program Development - Details and Timing===
*Board-related: Joi
**Nomination process for board members
***Preparing and reviewing with Board a description of board service, criteria we look for and need for balanced board
****Hope to post that by end of February
****Nominations can still be made at any time - please email Joi
**New Idea: Include regional reports to Board with updates from different regions
***CC already prepares dashboards quarterly, which are very condensed summaries of milestones etc. across CC's functional divisions. CC would like to invite each region to also submit a dashboard page
* General interest from affiliates on call to do this
* Affiliates would need to self-select someone to prepare.
* First report is due March 8th
* What constitute a region? There are geographic areas where regional borders are not so clear. We should discuss on the list any concerns/suggestions about how to define regions. There was also a proposal offlist to submit dashboard slides by topic/field rather than geography.
o Feedback need on list.
# For twice-yearly face-to-face meeting of board
* Dashboard is also prepared
* We should find a way to have someone from each region present their report to Board - conference call or other when not F2F
+ New Idea: Open part of board meeting to affiliates more broadly for questions/engagement - early stages of considering, have to get board work done, can't be completely open
# Considering co-locating a board meeting in 2011 with international affiliates gathering

o Affiliate program: Diane
+ Revising MOU and MOU processes
+ Goal is to make clearer expectations on both
+ Plan for it to be
# modular, to allow for different sets of responsibilities to be combined depending on affiliate
# Non exclusive - increasingly finding that multiple affiliate institutions have different strengths and want to participate in different ways

o New grant program and May fundraising: Michelle
+ Draft of program specifics posted - modeled on similar grant programs (Wikimedia, Global Voices). http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Grants
+ Goal is to provide funding (1000 - 10,000 USD) in support of CC-related programs and activities around the world.
+ Process:
#

Funding will not be available for lobbying activities or license porting activities (launch events, legal review of the licenses, etc.)
# Example projects on the wiki
#

Applications from or endorsed by CC affiliates will receive preference. Joint applications from official CC affiliate institutions and their partners are also welcomed.
#

Selection committee will be established. We want affiliates involved in selection process.
+ Deadline for comments: March 8
+ Spring campaign planned in May to raise funds for the grant program
# If someone already has a project in mind, please email Michelle so we can talk about how to showcase it during the campaign

* Operations update: Mike/Joi/John Wilbanks
o Consolidation of divisions and branding
+ OER and education in particular
o Public patent license -- development

* Open forum: All

o Puerto Rico: Can we get a grant for making informational materials about CC? A : Write a proposal, and if selection committee and public comments support it, we can offer grant. Covering operational costs by grants is not precluded.
o Puerto Rico: involved in OER. Would like to work with CC on education, possibly develop international OER plan perhaps together other affiliates

o Poland: A grant proposal could be for several CC jurisdictions to work on such an int'l OER plan
