4. Bug(s) of the week: 
223026  STEM Map should enable multiple GIS Map Projections (propose to close)
Situation: STEM is not trying to be a GIS tool; image logger allows 4 different projections, don’t want overhead for run
Consensus: Close the bug (can re-open later if need be) 
391734  datasource disease initializer does not accept platform neutral paths (discuss... raised to severity 2)
Problem: When trying to initialize from a previous run, Alfiya found STEM writes to IP address for specific computer 
Situation: STEM reads platform urls but doesn’t write to them
TO DO: Stefan/Matt will send Chris a pointer to where this occurs in the code (occurs at least 3 places)
TO DO: Chris will set to incidence of log file, add comment 
5. ITEMS FROM PARTICIPANTS 
Werner: Demo camps coming up, open for proposals, in Berlin, Munich & USA  
 Chris: May attend in Berlin, not sure whether he will present
Jamie: Will consider USA (camp not until 2013)
