== Background ==
On 5-Nov-2008, [[OCLC]] announced the Policy for Use and Transfer of [[WorldCat]] Records to replace the Guidelines for the Use and Transfer of OCLC-Derived Records. The goals of the policy, as described by OCLC, were "to modernize record use and transfer practices for application on the Web, foster new uses of WorldCat data that benefit members and clarify data sharing rights and restrictions." This new policy generated considerable discussion in the library community, including two petitions, several trade publication articles, and over 80 blog posts with related comments.

On 13-Jan-2009, OCLC announced a[http://www.smokelessecigarettereviews.com/blu-cigs-review blu cigs coupon]/span>with a charge to: consult with librarians and member representatives as appropriate; review reports, letters and comments including blog and listserv messages from the global library community regarding the revised Policy; and recommend principles of shared data creation and changes in the Policy for Use and Transfer of WorldCat Records that will preserve the community around WorldCat infrastructure and services, and strengthen libraries. The Review Board submitted its [http://www.oclc.org/worldcat/catalog/FinalReport_ReviewBoard.pdf final report] to OCLC on 22-Jun-2009 recommending that the proposed policy be withdrawn and a Record Use Policy Development Task Force be formed along with a "formal, transparent and well-managed process" to create a new policy. In a [http://www.oclc.org/news/releases/200939.htm news release] posted on 26-Jun-2009, OCLC accepted these recommendations.

On 7-April-2010, the Review Board of Shared Data Curation and Stewardship posted their draft policy for a period of review and comment (see link below).

This page documents the discussion of members of the library community surrounding the revision of the Guidelines and creation of the Policy. It can be edited by anyone who has registered for an account on the Code4Lib wiki. [[Special:Userlogin|Registration]] on the Code4Lib wiki is open to anyone with an e-mail address.

== Petitions ==

On November 13, 2008, a petition called [http://watchdog.net/c/stop-oclc Stop the OCLC powergrab!] was started by Aaron Swartz to repeal the new policy. Background in his blog post, [http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/oclcscam Stealing Your Library: The OCLC Powergrab].

On December 1, 2008, Elaine Sanchez created a new [http://www.petitiononline.com/oclc/petition.html petition] with more depth and specificity. The petition calls for OCLC to vacate the new policy, create a more open process for revising the 1987 guidelines, and assert that the records are the property of the respective contributing members. Ms. Sanchez [http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3cA5EA7312DD1822479490004ED396177E96E8D2D455%40BOBCATMAIL4.matrix.txstate.edu%3e posted an announcement about it] on the Autocat mailing list.

== Asheville Brews Cruise ==

"Experience a taste of Ashevilles thriving local beer scene with an exclusive tour of three of our award-winning microbreweries." - http://www.brewscruise.com/asheville/

A big shout out to [http://www.talis.com Talis] for stepping up and sponsoring a portion of this event. Our first stop on the cruise will be a brewery slash pizza joint and Talis has generously offered to pay for our pizza. Yay!

==== Itinerary ====

# Pickup from the hotel is tentatively scheduled for 6:15pm. Those who haven't pre-paid should try to get there a little early.
# Stop #1 will be the Asheville Pizza & Brewing Co. where we will sample 16-20 different beers and consume our delicious, alcohol-absorbing, [http://www.talis.com Talis]-sponsored pizza.
# Stop #2 will be Highland Brewing Company, "Asheville's 1st and largest brewing company"
# Stop #3 will be the French Broad Brewery which "specializes in a variety of European style beers."
# Expected return to the hotel is around 9:30-10pm

==== Cost & Payment ====

The cost for the cruise is $40 per person. You have one options for paying:

# Bring $40 with you on the night of the cruise. I've been told they have a hand-held credit card machine for the cash-strapped.

'''UPDATE''': I've had enough people prepay. Just bring cash or a credit card on Tuesday night.

==== Signup ====

'''Sorry, the event is full!''' We were forced to set a limit of 48 persons due to that's the max number of folks that will fit into two party buses, plus we don't want to overwhelm the staffs at the breweries. There is, however, a waitlist that someone started below.

UPDATE: The Laughing Seed is closed on Tuesday. Whoops. Let's meet in the lobby at 6pm and figure out a plan from there.

== 12 Bones BBQ Dinner Excursion ==
(was a lunch excursion)

[http://www.12bones.com/ 12 Bones BBQ] is widely considered the best BBQ in Asheville [[http://www.yelp.com/biz/12-bones-smokehouse-asheville *]]. However it is only open from 11-4, M-F. We would like to organize a group so that we can rent out the place on Wednesday night. If we get at least 50 people, it will be doable.

'''When:''' Wednesday, February 24th

'''Time:''' Cash Bar: 6:00pm
Dinner: 6:30pm

'''Where:''' 5 Riverside Drive Asheville NC, 28801
*[http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=31+Woodfin+Street,+Asheville,+NC+28801+(Renaissance+Asheville+Hotel)&daddr=5+Riverside+Drive,+Asheville,+NC+28801-3134&geocode=FbUsHwIdtWIU-yF_M0r573W8WykTXk8JWPNZiDEFKzEaZpTYaQ%3BFQ36HgIdayEU-w&gl=us&hl=en&mra=cc&sll=35.592378,-82.556462&sspn=0.016053,0.038581&ie=UTF8&z=15 Driving Directions] (5 minutes)

*Cabbing Directions: If you all would like to organize into cabs, I would suggest meeting in the lobby of the hotel between 5:45pm and 6:00pm and figuring things out from there. While I would normally love to help out with 80 people taking cabs (insert sarcasm here), I'll probably already be at the venue. A couple of cab companies I found are:
**New Blue Bird Taxi Company - (828) 258-8331
**Checker Cab Service - (828) 254-1155

'''Menu:'''
This will be buffet style. So bring your appetite.
*Pulled Pork
*Chopped Beef Brisket
*Corn Bread
*Buns
*Mashed Sweet Taters
*Sweet Vinegar Coleslaw
*Collard Greens (contains meat)
*Fountain Drinks/Sweet Tea/Unsweetened Tea

==== Going to walk ====

Some folks are thinking of just walking to avoid the whole transportation issue. We're meeting 5:20ish by the registration desk for the conference.

* Jon Gorman - will walk unless it starts looking like it's raining hard. Then might do taxi.
* Scott Garrison - what Jon said
* Harry Kaplanian

==== Designated Drivers ====

Names and vehicle capacities of volunteer BBQ drivers. The numbers include the driver.

* Mike Silver - 4
* Peter Murray - 5
* Ross Singer - 5
* Esm Cowles - 4
* Matt Bachtell - 4
* Ryan Scherle - 2
* Erik Hatcher - 4
* Robert Haschart - 4

== Werewolf! ==
It wouldn't be a tech conference unless we got together one evening to turn into a gang of murdering beasts and hyper-suspicious victims. Facilitated by the one and only mbklein.

=== About Werewolf ===

Werewolf (also known as Mafia) is a parlor game that has become[http://www.smokelessecigarettereviews.com/best-electronic-cigarette-what-is-the-best-e-cigarette-brand e cigarette brands] At it's most basic, it's a game of information asymmetry -- a battle between an uninformed majority (the townspeople) and an informed minority (the werewolves who live and hunt among them). At its best, it's an off-the-wall paranoid screaming match. There are dozens of variations -- we'll start with the basics, and depending on everyone's stamina and desire to keep playing, save the tricky stuff for later. Hopefully by the end of the evening all the participants will be jibbering, jumpy, sleep-deprived lunatics incapable of trusting even their closest friends.

In other words, ''good times.''

== Working Out ==

Gotta make up for those beer and BBQ excursions somehow. Let's work out! Ideas: hiking, jogging, [http://www.crossfitasheville.com CrossFitting], surfing,...

=== CrossFit Asheville ===
[http://www.crossfitasheville.com CrossFit Asheville]
Contacted the gym, we're invited to the Monday night 6:30pm slot.

Monday night: meet in lobby at 5:45pm. The workout tonight isn't too bad: http://www.crossfitasheville.com/2010/02/22/100222-monday-beginnings/

* <s>Erik Mitchell (only if we are not overwhelming their space</s> sorry. . . had an unanticipated conflict
* Steve DiDomenico (crossfit newb, also only if we aren't overwhelming their space) -- I will need a ride!

=== Jogging ===

* Monday: Erik Hatcher (too cold? I'll do the treadmill instead; 2-3 miles max)
**Perhaps a good 5 mile (or less as this is an out & back) run to the Biltmore house gate? - [http://www.mapmyrun.com/route/us/nc/asheville/724126642963377301 Suggested route to Biltmore]
**Looks good. Count me in. (John Barneson)

* Tuesday: Sounds like a great day for the Code4Lib Inaugural 10 miler - [http://www.mapmyrun.com/route/us/nc/asheville/805126642901812010 Suggested Route to the Grove Park Inn]
*Update - leav hotel at 6am? - see you on the road!
** Jean Rainwater, up for 10 miles if slowish means 10:00
* Wednesday:
** <s>Erik Hatcher (2-3 miles max) (brrr - see you in the gym / hot tub)</s>
** Emily Lynema would be up for a 3-miler (presenting at 9:15am so have to be on time)
**Weather permitting - a hike around Mt Mitchell or Mt. Pisgah, blue ridge parkway or trail run? [http://runningtimes.com/Article.aspx?ArticleID=11835]
* Thursday:
** <s>Erik M. and I (Ray Schwartz) will be running to Riverside Cemetery. 1 1/2 mile to the cemetery. Around the cemetery and back--3.6 miles total. Link to the route here [http://www.runningmap.com/?id=165537] The cemetery is a historic site [http://www.nps.gov/nr/travel/asheville/riv.htm]. Meet us in the lobby at 6:30am.</s> Eric bowed out. And the cemetery does not open until 8am. So I (Ray Schwartz) am just going to run a few miles from my hotel on Ravenscroft st.
