Title: tag meeting minutes 2007-05-17

OK. Then I suggest the following procedure. Draft meeting minutes are posted to the Wiki, and a note is sent to the alias pointing people to them, and asking them to make any corrections. A couple of days later the minutes are posted to the "official" minutes folder in our document repository (we'll clean this up so it doesn't contain the extraneous stuff - Jacques and I are already talking about this), and the draft is deleted.

Comments?

Hi everyone,

 

 Just a reminder that the wiki is intended to be used as a scratch area for collaborative work; once the minutes are "set" they should be copied either into an email message and posted to the TC list or uploaded as a document in the TC repository.

 

Thanks!

 

Mary

Oops…I just read this email.

 

I like posting minutes on the Wiki better, since other people can make changes if something is not accurate. Also the minutes I saw Jacques posted on the WG site are kinda lumped together with other documents. Can we put a link on the WG site to link to the minute page on the Wiki which I have already created one at http://wiki.oasis-open.org/tag/MeetingMinutes. Have a look, if we don’t like the wiki approach we can go back to the WG site.

 

- Serm

Victor and I have just briefly discussed the use of the Wiki.We realized that the OASIS "collaboration software" (see our homepage at http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/tag/) already provides some useful tools. Specifically, email archiving, document management, a calendar, and a simple action-item management system. There's no reason for us to re-invent the wheel, and since there will be some expectations on the part of people outside the group that they'll be able to find things here, I suggest that we use these facilities for:

* posting meeting minutes
* managing our time (via the calendar)
* managing our action items
* storing "formal" documents such as white-papers, the spec itself, etc.

We can use the Wiki for more informal collaboration (as a more structured alternative to email discussions). Of course, the Wiki "home page" can contain links to the relevant sections of our group home page. (The URL, by the way, is http://wiki.oasis-open.org/tag/FrontPage.)

So: I suggest that you post the meeting minutes on the group home page while Victor and I work on the Wiki.

Thanks...
