I suggest we handle the question of a face to face meeting as the first item of business on our next call, and not allow ourselves to put it off futher.  I also suggest it would be helpful to have Karl Best of OASIS join for this portion of the call to discuss OASIS resources that may be available. 

 

Karl - can you or a designess join for the first part of our next call, next Wed at 4pm Eastern Time?

 

Barry, thanks for defining the items to be discussed.

 

Best,

 - Dan

Just so the hierarchy discussion is not the only topic on the list...

 

For the last two calls, we've not discussed the face-to-face meeting. Based on my company's travel restrictions and my personal need to plan something like this in advance (especially in regard to the proposed June dates), I offer the following questions:

 

1.       How long will the face-to-face meeting last?

2.       Specifically with the June dates in mind, would we try to meet on the weekend before, during the conference, the weekend after, or weekdays during the week before or after? This is probably dependent on the meeting's technical details and the length of time for the meeting. I'm not up on the content of the conference so I don't know whether any attendees would consider that time expendable in favor of an eContracts meeting.

3.       How many people would we expect to be there?

4.       Is there any kind of registration process?

5.       Who will be making arrangements for meeting space / hotel room blocks / etc.?

6.       How will charges for meeting space be handled?

7.       If a meeting is held at the end of June, can an agenda be published a month in advance?

8.       Is the meeting limited to those on the mailing list or can a wider audience take part?

9.       Will folks who cannot travel be able to participate in some way... via conference call for example?

10.   Are there any OASIS-Open requirements we have to meet? Where are those referenced?

11.   For the proposed October meeting in AU, with whom do we coordinate in OASIS-Open or are we strictly on our own? Will OASIS be making space available for groups to meet in conjunction with the conference?

 

Best,
