RE: [egov] Re: Proposed Diplomatic Communications Sub-Committee

["John Weiler, Executive Director" <john@ichnet.org>]

John,

 

I would be glad to head up one of the new SCs. As the ICH is a non-profit, govt sponsored collaboratory, we have the mechanisms and charter to help with this activity.  Also, we are very much interested in being part of this TC, and Mr. Jung could not volunteer for me at the first e-Gov TC kick off meeting, maybe you could be afforded us another opportunity to join this TC in a capacity that compliments our non-profit charter.

 

Also, the ICH has a formal, govt. vetted methodology and set of IEEE 1471 EA templates for mapping common business needs to technology solutions. This could be a viable mechanism for documenting and communication needs in a normative form.

 

Cheers,

 

john

Steve/Ranjeeth

This recent discussion has moved us a long way from my original idea of the scope of a Language SC within the e-Gov TC, and we may well now be talking about the need for two SCs.   I'll add it to our agenda on 12 March so that we can consider further and others can input their views.   So until then can we reserve judgement please.

Ranjeeth
It would be useful to see the draft charter for the HumanML SC before 12/3 please

All:

I've corresponded with the chair and vice-chair of the HumanML TC.
They've agreed that a better name for their SC would be "conflict
resolution". I can see how this could be synonomous with "diplomacy" in
same cases, but giving it the latter name name could cause confusion
with some parts of what the e-Gov TC could be doing. So they will be
renaming the SC.

The HumanML TC chair, Ranjeeth Thunga, will be participating in the
e-Gov TC in order to liaison between the two TCs.
