    • NOTE: email from DeborahMacPherson received during this meeting stated she could not fill out survey at this time.    (1WUI)
    • SUGGESTION: Each individual wanting to connect into UICDS could send in a survey response. The overlap of answers to questions such as "Q: What standards do you use for data formats or data exchanges?" could be an added benefit.    (1WUJ)
