+**Guest:**
+
+
+BIDS Meeting Notes:
+
+**April Maintainers Meeting in Seattle**: April 11-12, Arial can
+currently fund travel within the US (NSF funding), the OS Prize can fund
+non-US travel. They have a meeting space at the E-science institute and
+can provide space.
+
+Ariel needs: meeting attendees list, meeting agenda,
+
+Stefan to pass on to the maintainers to see if someone is up to making
+the program/defining attendees list
+
+**BIDS 2.0**
+
+Github project is established with many ideas but there aren\'t many
+\'takers' on completing the suggested items.
+
+-   Creating a more flexible hierarchy for BIDS
+    ([[https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-2-devel/issues/54]{.underline}](https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-2-devel/issues/54)
+    )
+
+-   What are the most important items that should be attended to?
+
+-   Long term goal should be to make BIDS adoption easier, will a 2.0
+    version create more confusion between versions or how can we make
+    BIDS 2.0 improve adoption from community
+
+    -   While presenting 2.0 we would like to accent that to be
+        developed in 2.0 features would help ?
+
+-   Revisiting how BIDS is defined beyond MRI may be a path to improving
+    adoption within the neuroscience community. I.e. BIDS started with
+    MRI and some of the BIDS spec might be more complicated than could
+    have been if we had focused on all modalities from the start.
+
+    -   iEEG, MEG,\... -
+
+    -   Perhaps a tool for automatic BIDS conversions would help, but
+        there are at least 20 different file formats for
+        electrophysiology data
+
+-   
+
+**Open Science Prize!**
+
+-   What should we do with the physical prize? We could 3D print
+    replicate the model to share among the maintainers/steering
+    committee.
+
+-   What to do with the prize money?
+
+    -   How do we receive the money? - \$5k CAD per person or \$55k CAD
+        to be spent as needed for BIDS
+
+-   \$55k CAD will be split with U Washington and Cyril (sub-contract
+    with xx Institution) so funds will be in both US and Europe
+
+-

+-   
+
+**BIDS Steering Committee Theme for the year: Improve adoption**
+
+-   Web presence (already in process - meeting established for Jan 12th)
+
+-   Training and dissemination
+
+    -   How do we poll non-BIDS users to understand barriers to BIDS
+        adoption?
+
+        -   Big consortia (OHBM, SfN, INCF, \...)
+
+        -   People who have adopted BIDS but not fully
+
+        -   Openneuro bidsignore files
+
+        -   Should we target specific regions such as Asia which has
+            historically provided few contributions to BIDS
+
+-   First steps: create and agree on a survey for non-BIDS users
+
+    -   Create a pull request for this survey:
+
+        -   Are they aware of BIDS?
+
+        -   Was it hard to convert data?
+
+        -   Do you use data that do not yet fit within BIDS?
+
+        -   Had questions, but could not find answers
+
+        -   
+
+    -   [[Yaroslav Halchenko]{.underline}](mailto:[email protected])
+        will create a pull request on github:
+        [[https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-starter-kit/pull/376]{.underline}](https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-starter-kit/pull/376)
