Introductions � Kelso
T.S. Kelso called the meeting to order at 12:30pm MST, and members introduced themselves. 

Minutes of the Summer 2006 TC Meeting (Keystone) � Kelso 
Minutes were accepted from the Keystone meeting without change.

Treasurer's Report � Coffey
The decrease in balance over the last year is due to paying for the online systems for abstract submission and conference registration.  Praxis has been paid for their website development work.  Praxis charges hourly.  While there are still things that could be done, 98% of the system is in place and the remainder of Praxis charges should be limited to maintenance with no substantial modifications anticipated.  Members were reminded that profits and losses are split with the AIAA.

Technical administration subcommittee � Coffey
The Technical Administration Subcommittee (TAS) supports conference tech chairs.  The TAS consists of 5 or 6 people that will primarily coordinate via e-mail discuss roles and responsibilities.  A meeting was scheduled for later during the Sedona Conference with Tech Chairs from this and upcoming conferences.  To date, activities have included looking at paper formats - putting together Word and Latex templates.  T.S. Kelso contacted Bob Jacobs at Univelt to find out what needs to be included.  The group is considering eliminating cover sheets because there are no longer any paper sales.  This subcommittee will provide continuity from conference to conference.  While the web sites are making it easier to administer conferences, there needs to be documentation.  This subcommittee will take responsibility for providing that documentation.
Alan Lovell reminded everyone that these committees are just forming with the intent to help.  Kim Luu had stressed people need to get involved.  T.S. Kelso reiterated that being on the committee helps with the running of the conferences.  By having these subcommittees, the job of being General or Tech chair should not seem so daunting.  Kelso called for people to sign up to participate.
Coffey suggested that upcoming Tech Chairs would join the committee and would then rotate off when they are preparing for the upcoming conference.  (Secretary note:  This was modified during the TAS meeting to keep the Tech Chairs on the TAS, but not provide them with any tasking beyond the preparations for their conferences.  The objective would be to have Tech Chairs learn from the TAS prior and provide support to future Tech Chairs after the conference.)

Conference administration subcommittee � Hoots
Felix Hoots mentioned that Schumacher, Wilkins, and Luu were all part of the Conference Administration Subcommittee.  Hoots called for additional support.  The objective of the subcommittee is to document general requirements for hotels for the summer and winter meetings (e.g., number of meeting rooms, hotel rooms, wireless internet, etc.).  The subcommittee still needs to write a charter.  Hoots suggested that an informal meeting may be scheduled for later during the conference.

Winter 2009 site selection � Wilkins
Wilkins announced that he will be taking over the site selection responsibilities from Kim Luu.
Wilkins presented 4 locations:  Myrtle Beach and Charleston, South Carolina and Savannah and Jekyll Island, Georgia (see http://www.space-flight.org/AAS_meetings/2007_winter/w2007%20Briefing%20on%20Savannah.ppt).  All locations have agreed to provide hotel rooms at Government Per Diem + 25%.  All have internet in some form, although they vary in price.  

A show of hands vote was taken:
Myrtle Beach:  0
Charleston:  6
Savannah:  12
Jekyll Island:  4
Based on the vote, the decision was narrowed to Savannah, GA, and Charleston, SC.  The final decision will be made later.
Matt Wilkins volunteered to be the General Chair.  A Tech Chair has not yet been selected.

Summer 2009 site selection � Cangahuala
Al Cangahuala presented Pittsburgh, PA, as a potential conference location (see http://www.space-flight.org/AAS_meetings/2007_winter/w2007%20Briefing%20on%20Pittsburg.ppt).  No one objected to holding the conference in Pittsburgh.  However, concerns were expressed regarding the family-friendly atmosphere and the natural beauty of the area.  Cangahuala responded that the hotels will help organize family-friendly tours.  Proulx mentioned that if we want to move forward with this location, we could gain by negotiating two years ahead instead of one.  Coffey brought up that ordinarily the SFM looks at multiple locations at once.  The Conference Administration Subcommittee will need to look at these issues.  Meanwhile, there is a call for someone to step forward and volunteer to research another location to trade against Pittsburgh.

John Breakwell Student Travel Award � Schaub
Hanspeter Schaub summarized this conference�s Breakwell Award candidates.  There were seven good applicants � with two of them being undergraduate students.  Three awards were made; but one awardee missed the ceremony.  Schumacher and Longman helped review papers.  The criteria for evaluation included letters of recommendation, the curriculum vitae, and the conference paper abstract.  Grade point average is not considered separately from the curriculum vitae.  

Dirk Brouwer Award � Vadali
Kim Luu had asked Dan Scheeres to take over these responsibilities.  Rao Vadali was not in attendance at the meeting to make a report.  Nominations are due in June.  The call for nominations will be released in a month.

Electronic version of JAS � Coffey/Spencer 
Spencer presented an update on the effort to create an electronic version of the Journal of Astronautical Sciences (JAS) (see http://www.space-flight.org/AAS_meetings/2007_winter/w2007%20Briefing%20on%20Online%20Journal.ppt).  The approach seeks to reuse much of the conference software already in place.  Journals are being released both in hardcopy and on-line.  Coffey, Spencer, and Howell are looking for inputs on what the members want to see from an on-line system including features.  They are looking into scanning in the old issues of the journal and having electronic versions of the articles for sale on-line to help cover some of the costs.  The approximate $20K would be covered by the AAS and not the SFM Technical Committee.  Kelso will distribute a survey to the committee members.  Ultimately, the board of directors will vote on authorizing the spending of the money.  Coffey suggested going to the AIAA site to see how they do it.  Issues that still would need to be resolved:  How to charge individuals, libraries, and members.
Proulx expressed concerns about using the same resource for the journal as the conferences � providing Praxis the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.  Coffey responded that the contract with Praxis states that the software is owned by AAS and that it can be taken somewhere else for web hosting at a later time.  
It was suggested that the AAS acquire the AIAA system, but AIAA will not provide the system to other organizations.  
Bishop, Spencer, and Rao reminded everyone that if the Journal does not go on-line, future articles may not be referenced and the importance of the Journal may be marginalized.  
The next board meeting is in March.  Spencer is looking for inputs to improve the presentation to the board.  Anyone who has inputs should provide them to David Spencer by the end of February.  

The meeting was adjourned by T.S. Kelso at 1:49pm MST.
