The vision of ESMF is to involve the community at every stage of development, and thus successfully create an open standard for building Earth system models. At the Second ESMF Community Meeting, to be held at GFDL in Princeton, NJ, on Thursday 15 May 2003, we will initiate a review of the ESMF application programming interface and will introduce prototype code developed by the ESMF team. We look forward to the Earth system modeling community's enthusiastic participation in the definition of this standard. Active and broad participation in ESMF development will enable us to refine the ESMF design to meet the needs of the widest range of users, from large national and international modeling centers and consortia, to individual scientists in small laboratory settings. The meeting is open to all, and we encourage the widest distribution of this invitation to attend.
