Our next telecon will be according to the new schedule
which will be 11 AM Eastern every other Friday.

Tomorrow we will discuss organizing around sub-groups.

The Attached .pdf is a table of the form:

Specification  |   Team |  Proposed Report
Date

The table lists the different elements of the proposed
spec, the first names of the members who signed up to be in the subgroup
for that section, and a "Proposed Report Date". The proposed
report date is the date of one of our UIMA TC Telecons (based on the new
schedule) where the subgroup would report on that spec element. Ideally
we will review two sections per telecon, giving each about 40 mins. 

Tomorrow we will discuss  the proposed schedule and
what the sub-group reports should cover.  

This is all open for discussion tomorrow, but the general
idea is that the subgroup would for example summarize the specification,
provide a general critique of the section, highlighting goals and key compliance
points,  identify any "votable" issues,  identify open-issues
that need deeper discussion, and finally conclude with a proposed action-plan
on how to take that section to completion. This may range from "it's
done" to "start from scratch". The TC as a whole will critique
and vote on the action plan.  As we mentioned last time the subgroup
should use the main email list to share their discussion with the whole
TC so that folks can follow it. We may also want the report to be in a
written form for everyone to review before the Report Date.

Talk to you tomorrow,

Dave
