I've scheduled a meeting for the Economic Botany Subgroup during the

Society for Economic Botany meeting in NY this summer.

Two separate sessions of the Economic Botany Subgroup are planned to

discuss requested revisions and compare other data standards currently in

use at various institutions. An overview of work on an interactive key to

the Economic Botany Data Collection Standard will also be presented.

Session 1- Monday, June 24, 1:30-5:00 pm

Session 2- Tuesday, June 25, 9:00am-12:00pm

Please respond to me at economicbotany@nybg.org by May 1^st and

mention whether you will be attending one or both sessions.

Information on the Society for Economic Botany Annual Meeting is

available at http://www.econbot.org/events/seb2002/seb_2002.html.
