- How can HAIG help?
  - They still have the old mailing list, ~40 people
  - There's a project on Box with documents related to design process
  - Plan is to distribute deliverables for review by the members of the ArcLight mailing list
- Will compatibility with ASpace and Hydra be part of this?
  - Stanford still thinking about Hypatia – Home
  - Gary's thinking – more of a discovery layer, not necessarily too much integration with ArchivesSpace – similar to Spotlight for exhibits
- Brad's question: what about ASpace Public Interface? Any overlap?
- Kayla, Mike, on Michigan's interest:
  - They've been interested in contributing to some kind of archival access systems that includes born-digital materials.
  - Presenting archival description for both physical and digital objects, pointing to content in a Hydra repository
  - Interested in exploring possibilities for integrating with ASpace (eventually)
  - Not related to current Mellon grant

    - Pending board budget approval
SAA Update
- The group expressed an interest in talking about user stories at the in-person SAA meeting, but Ben has had no luck locating a person to introduce the topic.
- Ben asked that those who remain interested, please contact him directly. If enough people still maintain interest, we'll run with it.
