bits and pieces
1. v2 status
brl version is available
documentation, training, etc. falling short
(we think it would be great if the front page were tailorable
per person)
We would like project-db.mit.edu to point to arachne (Bruce sent mail
asking that this happen, and it was reported that it was done)
[note: I tried going to https://project-db.mit.edu/ and netscape told
me that someone might be spoofing because the site name and the
certificate didn't match up...this may not be such a good idea?]
[hum...my notes say this is where Bill started drawing on Bruce's
whiteboard. here's my notes on that:
project-db.mit.edu -> cname for arachne
http://project-db.mit.edu/ intro + "if you need R/W"

We would like the front page (index, top level) to link to more info.
Action Plan:
Mike hashes up something
Tim and Brenda act as curmudgeonly reviewers of the something
2. team leader off front page?
postponed. see what Mike comes up with.
3. reporting problems
see #7, how to service and support
4. glossary
brenda will provide for Mike to mix into hash.
5. articles review
Tim read them and remembered doing so. Mike thought he read them,
but might have been dreaming. We all should read them.
6. http://web.mit.edu/project-db/index.html
see hash.
7. how to service and support
postponed to next meeting.
Next Meeting Schedule and Preliminary Agenda:
10/9
1. Action Item Review (want to bet mike forgets to put
potatoes in the hash?)
2. v3 discussion (including make/buy discussion)
3. how to service/support (probably somewhat mixed up with above)
Derivative Action Item: We (yes, this means you) should consider who
are appropriate participants in the service/support discussions and
whether we need to invite more people.
