  SIG coordinators organize a few times a year,
  which are a mixture of presentations and
  discussions
• Some speakers ask to present their work at a SIG,
  e.g. to raise awareness about a new project they
  are beginning to get help/collaboration/opinions
  from the community on a project area or issue to
  keep the SIG updated on a projects development
  or to present a completed project or toolkit or
  domain map, etc to the community
• The SIG coordinators also ask people engaged in
  work of interest to the community to speak at SIG
  meetings
• Meetings are advertised on the JISC CETIS website
  and discussion lists

  discussion list which are used for posting news,
  events and items of interest, and also for
