1.  dkk, salemme, jweiss, delgado and tjm met on 7/14... 

2.  Review of Outstanding Action Items (from previous Meeting Notes)

DONE    a1. Anne will provide a demo of the current system to Diane
DONE    a2. Anne will provide information on the Sun backup product Co-Pilot
            to the team...as background for our own work.  We are NOT 
            opposed to a purchased solution, but don't expect there will be 
            a good fit with our requirements.
DONE    a3. Diane will review the existing draft of the HIGH LEVEL DESIGN, and
            produce for the team's review a revised DESIGN before our 
            next meeting.
DONE    a4. Jonathon will establish a mailing list/discuss meeting for this
            project, and populate the the discuss meeting with the documents 
            that have already been created.
HOLD    a5. Anne will ask the net about tools that might be more versative
            than dbm, but still not in the Ingres/Oracle class of products,
            for storing the various kinds of dbs that we need for this service. 
DONE    a6. Anne will brief David on the results of the meeting.


3.  We spent the better part of the meeting doing a detailed review of Diane's
    draft design document.  Anne and Jonathon had provided additional feedback
    on the document off-line.  Diane will incorporate this feedback into the
    document as appropriate.

    We all agreed that the choice of the database manager will be crucial
    to our success, and further study is required as to the right tools.

    Before we can move onto finalizing the design, we need to schedule a 
    design forum.  We will discuss timing & logistics for this forum at our
    next meeting.
