Subject: Re: [ubl-csc] Hong Kong planning


[tmcgrath@portcomm.com.au:]

| at this stage i am assuming that most subcommittees will not be
| meeting independently (i don't think LC will meet more than one
| session - if at all). so when we talk about technical breakouts,
| these are ad-hoc subgroups. is that correct?

Right.

| if so, then can i suggest this group address the tasks in our
| future work items.

I agree (and thanks for the further detail, I'll work it in).  But
the most effective grouping is not the logical one, it's the one
that makes best use of the people in attendance.  Those people
fall into two groups:

 - technical/business experts

 - localization experts

And therefore the most effective work program will be

 - a technical/business track

 - a parallel localization track

 - a set of plenaries to deal with the issues that can't safely be
   put into one of the two parallel tracks

My estimation of what can safely be trusted to a subgroup without
creating coordination problems farther down the line is
considerably less expansive than it used to be.  So modulo the
addition of further detail, I'm not seeing anything that would
make me change the basic arrangement I suggested earlier.  (I'm
also factoring in the schedules of a couple of visitors who will
only be with us for a couple of days.)

A more detailed version of the schedule appears below.

Visitors

   I think we will have several visitors in addition to the people
   listed above, but their schedules are still uncertain.

Phones

   I think that enough people have indicated a desire to
   participate by phone to justify keeping the line open during
   plenary sessions.

Meeting structure

   I suggest that we meet in plenary session about half the time
   and in breakouts the other half.  I suggest that breakouts be
   structured in two physically separate tracks, technical and
   l10n/regional, and one virtual track, admin/marketing.
