Subject: Re: [legalxml-courtfiling] ECF TC Budget Request
Eric, I've reviewed the budget request and, having received no opposition, will endorse this as the will of the TC. Ron Bowmaster Chair ECF TC 801.578.3872 >>> Eric Dimick Eastman <erice@doxpop.com> 12/4/2009 2:50 PM >>> Hello all, especially Ron (Chair of TC), Jim and George (LegalXML MS Steering Committee Members) and Jim (provider of TA), Here is what I'm planning on presenting to the member section steering committee on the conference call on Monday, unless people chime in to offer improvements. Ron, as the chair of the TC, I have been told that you need to endorse this before it can be represented as the will of the TC. [begin budget request] In 2010 the Electronic Court Filing Technical Committee will work primarily on outreach, both on the benefits to courts and on technical feasibility. To this end the majority of our expenses in will go towards presenting at conferences, providing direct technical assistance to implementers and engaging with the online community. In 2010 there will also be a significant effort to produce and demonstration/reference implementation for the ECF standard. While this the not a TC activity, many of the individuals who actively volunteer time to the TC activities will be donating that time to the reference implementation project instead. We anticipate that we may call upon OASIS staff to assist with what I'm terming Online Outreach, which in other times might have been accomplished with volunteer efforts. I'm unsure at this time whether the contract with MTG, which I believe is close to final approval, will count against this year's budget or next's. I'm anticipating that some of that money will be spent yet this year, but that the majority ($5,000) will occur in next calendar year. We have decided not to produce a 4.1 version of the ECF spec to correlate to with the 2.1 release of the NIEM standard. It is anticipated that in 2011, we will spend some time and money updating the spec when NEIM 3.0 arrives. - Funding travel for presenters at conferences $6,000 - NACM - E-Courts - National Conference of Appellate Court Clerks - National Conference of Metropolitan Courts - National District Attorneys Association - ABA CourtTech - Online Outreach $5,000 (possibly on OASIS staff or external contract) - Produce Webinar for prospective implementors - Create/reinvigorate online community around ECF standard via wiki/forums - Technical Assistance - Carried forward from 2009 $5,000 - New in 2010 $6,800 - Total: $22,800 (without TA carry-over amount $17,800) [end budget request] Comments and suggestions welcome.
