Thanks Mark.

I think this is definitely in the Community Outreach camp.  (Rich Merdinger and Christian Dawson copied here)

They have yet to have their kick-off call, but it will be happening soon.

They are quite keen to make sure that before they go out to the community at large that they have a clear and consistent message.

Hello all,

 

The UA Top Issues kickoff call is scheduled for Tuesday, May 5, at 1:00 PM (US-Pacific Time). For those who responded to the Doodle, I will send calendar invitations directly, which will include dial-in information (also attached to this email for those who'd like to join but didn't respond to the Doodle).

 

Speak soon,

Brent

Hello all,

 

I'll be heading up the Universal Acceptance Top Issues subgroup. The purpose of this email is to (a) identify who will be participating in this subgroup, and (b) find time for a kickoff ca! ll.

 

The "top issues" category is still a bit amorphous, and one of the goals over the next few weeks will be to define boundaries and structure. Some of the potential areas of focus that I've discussed with Don and Ram include:

  1. Criteria for what "UA Ready" means
  2. Assessment of current documentation and tools in this space
  3. Creating a Knowledge Base and/or Wiki
  4. Recruiting representation from large industry players

Let's figure out when to meet in order to nail down the focus for the next two months. 

 

Please fill out this poll to determine availability for an upcoming call. I'll also use the poll results to understand whom I can expect to be an active participant, which will be useful for setting scope (i.e., the scop! e of a group of 15 is different than a group of 3). 

 

Looking forward to meeting,

Brent
