[Claudia's note from Tuesday (26 August) last week]


I spoke with Scott McNeil, FSG Executive Director, yesterday about
contributing the IBM implementation of the JTAPI C code to FSG and what FSG
expects from a contribution. He and I also talked about the FSG
OpenPrinting working group and what the FSG Board expects from the
OpenPrinting working group. I asked if he would be willing to call into one
of our Thursday Architecture conference calls and he thought that it would
be a good idea. Here is a list of topics that he came up with (I added
topic 7). Are there other topics that he should include in the agenda?

Scott cannot attend this Thursday 8/28, but he is available next Thursday
9/4. It would be nice if everyone in our working group can attend. Will
everyone be on the call Thursday 9/4. I have a slight recollection that
Glen will be out of town next week, is that true? Let me know and I will
see if we can reschedule with Scott.

Claudia

-------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for enlightening me on the progress of OpenPrinting
yesterday.

I look forward to attending the September 4, 3:00pm EDT OpenPrinting
teleconference. Please let me know the phone and passcode. Also, I
will be bringing in Doug Beattie on this call. Doug is responsible for
our Government Grant/University Outreach program. More information on
Doug can be found here,

I am planning to discuss the following topics:

 1. Life of a typical open source project: Feast; Famine;
    Traction; Success!

 2. Request status of OpenPrinting

 3. Open source community acceptance of OpenPrinting's efforts

 4. Request plans of OpenPrinting

    - per task? roadmap? timeline? etc.

 5. Discuss leadership issue

 6. Request list of resources needed by OpenPrinting in 2004

 7. Contributing code to FSG/Open Source

 8. other?

Please advise if this agenda is ok.

Scott
