>Given that a few of us are away (Pete, Kim,) and that others of us will
>likely be tied up Thursday with a Scopus install, and that all of us could
>probably use more time in our days, let's not meet tomorrow morning.
>Instead, let me offer this much of an update:
>
>I got the approval from Cec to go ahead with the dollars to have Scopus
>come in and do the install and training. In order to do so, I need a
>quote from them.
>
>I communicated several times last week with Dick Campbell about getting
>the quote. Last I heard was at 6pm Friday he said he would have the quote
>to me today. No sign of it yet.
>
>Dick did say that if I was not able to hand him a Req by Thursday, they
>could still presumably come do the install as long as I was in the process
>of getting the accounting paperwork done.
>
>Brian Melanson is ready to meet us in E40 sometime on Thursday morning to
>let us into the machine room and to give us a swipe card to use during the
>day for doing the server install.
>
>Brett Rosen who had helped during Help-IT pilot and had done a bunch of
>Unix server admin stuff is also willing to help with the install and the
>overall evaluation.
>
>I've sent mail to Theresa Regan asking what might have happened to the old
>Scopus doc sets that were in Bldg 16. No response back yet.
>
>I've also asked how quickly following the install we could expect to get
>the 2 days worth of initial training in order to be able to productively
>explore this tool. I got a bit of a non-answer from Dick, though he did
>say that someone other than Bill Papp might be the one to do the two
>training days.
>
>I think that's about it for now.
