Proposals:
John and Shawn are exploring a response to NSF 14-520 (Software Infrastructure for Sustained Innovation). NCAR is ineligible to lead, however, and we are pursuing partnering as a subawardee. A promising conference call was held with Larry Frank (UCSD), a physicist and current VAPOR user. The potential team is following up with respective program officers.
