How ADAPT(not a standard) works with/between ISO 11783 XML and other standards (complementary, not either/or)
MYM PAC Communications session 6/11, 8 a.m.
Current 'placeholder' description in agenda: "How we are communicating out to the industry on AgGateway initiatives in interoperability in farm operations, new irrigation standards, imaging, and more."
New description for agenda (draft): "During this working session, we'll create a draft infographic to explain what AgGateway does, is, and its relationship to standards and other organizations. This will complement the new 'what AgGateway has accomplished and connected' infographic. We'll also review PAC communications work to complete for transitioning to AgGateway 2020."
"How ADAPT Versioning Works" - explain ADAPT versioning, breaking changes, and release timing so companies have a clear timeline so they know good times to implement (e.g., don't wait b/c think it will change 'soon')
FAQs on when to implement
Guide to business and developer information/tools (e.g., where to find, what is available, where to check for more info) - companies need to understand the package of materials and tools available and how to use in one guide document/page

items to consider in future
Traceability pitches (one for food processors)?
Identify audience: target flyers, messages to different groups; also have an overview all-audience flyer
Talk to new members: what pain points were they trying to solve that got them to join, and what collateral could we create to help others?
ASABE 2017: Sustainability, Provenance and ADAPT, Compound Identifiers. ASABE 2018: "Fit" paper (where does AgGateway "fit" into the standards space). Were not completed for conference papers, but could consider these journals for publication:
Computers & Electronics in Agriculture (ASABE journal) (no fee)
Applied Engineering in Agriculture (Elsevier journal) (fee)
There's also a Precision Ag journal, but the time frame from submission to publication is too long.
KEEP - As update/create flyers or other materials, consider (from 8/28/18 meeting discussion):Flyer format:
Use A4 format for our flyers, include country codes flyer and card phone numbers and country on addresses, and make sure we're being international in all our press. Also be careful about colloquialisms.
Use diagrams and pics, not words (words mean something different to different people) – borrow from presentations (ADAPT, CART, traceability, etc.) and make into a professional graphic
