The link to MapFAST should have been http://www.oclc.org/research/activities/mapfast/default.htm
Thanks to Ed Jones for the heads-up on the bad link.

Subject: [NGC4LIB] Midwinter 2011 FAST Meeting
The FAST Subcommittee of the ALCTS Subject Analysis Committee will meet Friday, Jan. 7, 2011 from 4-4:15 PM, location MAR Coronado and you are cordially invited to attend.
Agenda:
1. General review and discussion of FAST by Ed O'Neill. He said, "With the publication of the book (and distribution to the subcommittee members), FAST is now fairly well documented. Some of the underlying concepts upon which FAST was developed are bound to generate comments/criticism/questions. While the book is new and with the subcommittee planning to transition to an interest group, this would be an ideal time to have a general review of FAST. It would certainly be helpful for us to get feedback regarding what we did right, what we did wrong, what we should change, and where to go from here."
2. MapFAST is now up and publicly available at http://fast.oclc.org/MapFAST/ . It seems to be generating a lot of interest and we will have a brief demo and discussion.
3. The transition from Subcommittee to Interest Group with broader focus will be discussed, and those present will be able to sign the application to be presented to CCS Exec. I will bring the printed application with the charge we agreed upon by email this fall for signing.
4. Selection of the first person to serve as Chair of the new Interest Group.
