Hi Don,

We will definitely need to have an agenda for each meeting.

I am wondering if one way of handling the teleconference might be to
have people who want to speak submit a short synopsis of their agenda
item for approval by the Chairs. Each speaker could be limited to let's
say, two minutes. People could react to speaker's statements via email
since an interactive debate among 508 people might be difficult, though
perhaps not impossible. I am just thinking that a more formal agenda
with a list of speakers would ensure the breadth of topics and help us
from being sidetracked by arcane technical discussions. I am sure we
will have many of these, but hopefully via email.

Don

tomorrowand co-chairs


All,

Reluctantly, Curtis and I have agreed that it is best to cancel
tomorrow's teleconference. We are still working out tools to manage the
teleconference speaker queue which is an absolute necessity for our
subcommittee of about 50 participants.

I think we are closed on Curtis and myself as subcommittee co-chairs.
Not everyone has registered a position but there have been no negative
votes and no other volunteers. So, unless there are objections raised by
the end of this week, I will send this recommendation to Jim and Mike on
Monday for their approval.

Curtis and I think that the next order of business is to define the
workscope and goals for this subcommittee. From the TEITAC meeting and
Gregg's note to the General issues subcommittee, we are charged with:

Reviewing the provisions (in our case, this would be 1194.21
Software applications and operating systems and 1194.22 Web-based
intranet and Internet information and applications):
1) Looking for gaps
2) Looking for problems
3) Considering the themes throughout

If you have further thoughts on this, please send them to
= EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED = . I'll start a draft on our web page
tomorrow.

Andi
