<excerpt>Dani,
Here's a draft of the first "infosys" communication proposed. It would
be released sometime after 9/11, the last spreadsheet update. A second
communication would come after the cutover (shortly after 9/19).
Cheers, Bob

<fontfamily><param>Arial</param>Hello,
You will be pleased to know that the Information Systems Strategic Plan
is now available on-line in the ìAbout ISî section at
</fontfamily><<http://web.mit.edu/is/org/index.html><underline><fontfamily><param>Arial</param><color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param>http://web.mit.edu/is/org/index.</color></fontfamily><<http://web.mit.edu/is/org/index.html>html</underline><fontfamily><param>Arial</param>.
This document is the result of a lot of work by many people in IS and
among our customers. It should be easy to follow, as it has a very
regular structure that lends itself to regular updates and maintenance,
which is the responsibility of the ITLT. You will find the Plan
organized under four broad Themes. Each Theme is realized by anywhere
from 3 to 5 strategies. Each strategy, in turn, is implemented with
several specific initiatives. The Themes and Strategies should change
very little over time, but the initiatives will see regular updates.
The Initiatives and their two active components, Projects (the work of
project teams) and Activities (generally the products of standing team)
will be maintained by ITLT members in a new database, which will soon
be accessible to all from the same web location as the Strategic Plan.
This database will completely replace and extend the current Project
Database. By the last week in September, the contents of the old
Project Database will be converted the new database and all references
in the IS web pages will be redirected accordingly. The new database
will also include the entire set of Initiatives developed in the
Information Systems Strategic Plan. All of you should see your work in
one or more of these Initiatives. Expect further communications toward
the end of September when the new database goes on line.
Thanks, JDB
