Re: [pki-survey] Postpone Survey SC Meeting?

["Evans Paul" <evans_paul@bah.com>]

Title:

Steve,

 I'll be available Friday to discuss the survey.  I'm familiar with the Perseus 
product line, having used earlier versions myself.  I'll be talking to my
Principal today to see if we have any investment money available to underwrite
having one of our statistics experts perform an analysis.  

To that end, is there any chance of getting an idea of the number of responses
so I can get an estimate of our internal cost.  Better yet, what's the chance
of getting an export of the de-identified data (Excel or Access)?  The data
would be useful just to be able to make a meaningful contribution to Friday's
discussion.

Great! We found a time when everyone can attend!

So the next meeting of the PKI TC Survey SC will be:

Our call-in information will be:

  U.S. Tollfree: +1.866.545.5220
  International: +1.865.673.3239 
  Access Code: 1305447 

Our draft agenda is:

11:30 Roll call 
11:35 Approve minutes of May 22, 2003 meeting 
11:40 Discuss survey results and decide how to proceed with analysis 
12:50 Any other business 
 1:00 Adjourn 

I have updated our web site to reflect this meeting time.
And I have attached a copy of the minutes of our May 22,
2003 meeting to this message for your review.

Now that the response period for our survey has closed,
I will start tabulating the results. I'll send out a
brief summary later this week, before our meeting.

Thanks,

Steve

          PKI TC Survey Subcommittee Conference Call
     Thursday, May 22, 2003, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM Eastern U.S. Time
                     Unapproved Meeting Minutes

Members Present: Steve Hanna (Chair), Peter Doyle
Members Absent: Paul Evans, Terry Leahy
Minutes taken by: Steve Hanna

Steve Hanna called the meeting to order at 12:05 PM.
We did not have a quorum, since only 2 of the 4 members
were present.

Agenda Review
-------------

We agreed to remove the item "Review test survey" from the
agenda since that was covered during yesterday's PKI TC
concall. We added an item to discuss Survey Analysis.

Approval of Minutes of May 7, 2003
-------------------------------------

No quorum present, but no objections.

Discuss How Survey is Being Hosted
----------------------------------

Steve gave a brief description of how the survey is being
hosted. We're using the SurveySolutions XP software from
Perseus Development Corp. Currently, we have an evaluation
license but we will soon be purchasing a copy of the
Standard edition.

The software has a client component (for creating and
analyzing surveys) and a server component (for running
the surveys). The client component is running on Steve's
Windows PC. The server component is running on the
OASIS web servers. The server component can log results
to the server hard drive or email them to Steve. We're
planning to do both for backup.

Discuss Survey Analysis
-----------------------

We agreed that during the survey Steve will send periodic
updates to the Survey SC with information about how many
surveys have been received, raw totals for each answer, etc.

Once the survey is complete, Steve will prepare an initial
analysis and send that to the Survey SC. Then we should
have an in-depth discussion of the data where Steve can
use the analysis tools built into SurveySolutions XP to
consider the data from many angles, looking for interesting
correlations. Finally, we'll prepare a report on the
survey results and release that to the PKI TC and the
world, sending a copy to the survey respondents who gave
us their email address.

We agreed that the privacy of respondents' data must be
preserved. We have promised that only PKI TC members will
see individual responses. We want to go beyond that to
ensure that the email addresses collected are only used
for follow-up surveys and sending survey results. So we
agreed that those addresses will only be seen by Steve
and by OASIS staff (for backup purposes).

Check Status on Publicity Plan
------------------------------

We reviewed the status of the publicity plan. So far,
about half of the contacts have agreed to forward the
survey invitation. The other half haven't decided yet.
Nobody has said "No" yet.

Invitation
----------

We agreed that we should start drafting the survey
invitation. Steve will prepare a draft and then
circulate it to the Survey SC for review. After
that, we'll circulate it to the PKI TC for review.
Once the survey is live (scheduled for May 28),
we'll send the invitation out to the folks who have
agreed to forward it.

Next Meeting
------------

We agreed that our next meeting should be a two hour
concall after the survey results are in. We will focus
on analyzing the results. We chose Thursday, June 19,
11:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern U.S. Time. Same callin number.

Steve will confirm this with the other PKI Survey SC members.

Adjourn
-------

The meeting was adjourned at 12:28 PM.
