Hello RDAP'ers,


Thanks to all who participated in the vote for the future direction of RDAP. The results are in (figure below) and a solid majority have voted in favor of RDAP becoming an independent organization. Thank you all for voting!


The governing board (members and roles below) has met to start the process of launching RDAP as a free standing community. Our first order of business is to determine the location and timing for the RDAP 2019 conference. Our intent is to have this information to you by the middle of May 2018. Our main objectives in selecting a 2019 venue are as follows:


*         Affordability of registration

*         Variety of options for lodging

*         Proximity to an airport

*         Spring of 2019 timeframe

*         Minimal conflict with other conferences of interest


We are working with past RDAP university sponsors and a conference manager to review best possible venues for RDAP 2019. Once the conference venue has been determined we will turn our full attention to the work of developing RDAP into an organization that represents and supports the needs of our community. Along with casting your vote, many of you volunteered to serve on a committee<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1GMGqwyMhnJN5iKOy0wL3c2NYtjOggIauBUsR3wx4eJY/edit?usp=sharing>. These committees will launch soon and take on a variety of very important work to make RDAP successful. We are grateful to everyone who is volunteering their time and excited to be working with so many talented people!


We are working hard to have more information for you soon! Please don't hesitate to contact us at RDAPBoard at gmail.com<mailto:RDAPBoard at gmail.com> at any time to share your thoughts or ask questions.


All the best,


The RDAP Governance Board:


President: Erica Johns

Vice President: Jake Carlson

Past President: Amy Neeser

Secretary: Kristin Briney

Elections Coordinator: Christine Wiley

Treasurer: Amy Koshoffer

Bylaws: Daureen Nesdill
