Now that the community group has been approved there are some administrative tasks that must be completed before the work begins. I’ve outlined a few of these items below:</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><ul style="margin:0px" dir="ltr"><li>DADE CG participation agreement </li><li>Announcing DADE CG with an OIDF blog post</li><li>Identifying additional DADE CG co-chairs to help manage the CG and our work<br></li><li>Define next steps and desired output for the next ~6 months </li><li>Schedule reoccurring DADE CG meetings</li><li>The <a href="https://oidf.slack.com/archives/C07KQP3DMR7">#dade channel</a> on OIDF Slack is functional with a <a href="https://idprofessionals.slack.com/archives/C07JWAUCE90">parallel group on IDPro Slack</a>, as well</li><li>The DADE CG <a href="https://github.com/deansaxe/death-and-the-digital-estate/tree/main">GitHub repo</a> is live, feel free to contribute to the Issues or add pull requests for the DADE resources that are being collected</li></ul><div><br></div><div dir="ltr">All of these actions above are happening in the background as I begin to organize the CG’s work.
