[epsi-coord] OKF's tasks @ ePSI platform

[Daniel Dietrich]

Dear all,

We had a disucussion (Jonathan, Daniel, Antti and Jason) about the OKF tasks and responsibilities.

 * Daniel is the number one contact person (conveniently located in Berlin), but most work is devided equally between Daniel and Antti
 * Jason is the project manager taking care of the controlling tasks in WP1
 * Jonathan will be supporting from the background, only workdays marked "Media outreach strategy".

Here are some questions that we have and some defined tasks that we will be doing / contributing. 

We identified two tasks to do first: 1. Helping with building list of sources and 2. Media and outreach strategy. So we propose to start with this. 

We would like to try to *group tasks together* rather than have them spread over the two years of time, so we could get things done focus  and in an efficient way. Of corse there might be some tasks that require work / attention on a more regular basis. For most of the tasks a close communication and coordination with the team will be essential!



Best regards
Daniel
