PCMeeting

I'm disappointed more people could not attend the weeks Planning Council

meeting, but those that did, got a lot done. 

So, for those that were not there, please read the notes carefully and
let 
us know if questions or issues.

For those that were there, thank you, and let me know if I captured 
anything incorrectly. 

The major accomplishments were 

- finalized the rampdown dates for Galileo SR1 (and I "filled in" the 
dates for SR2, since same pattern, I can't imagine any controversy). 

- finalized the dates for Helios Milestones along with the +0, +1 ... 
patterns. 

I was so excited I filled in a Google Calendar with all the dates, and
it 
was only after I was done did I realize I put them all on the Planning 
Council calendar.

instead of the "Galileo Calendar"

I can transfer all the events, eventually, if needed ... but, does
anyone 
think we need multiple calendars? I guess we'd need a new Helios
Calendar 
to be consistent. Or will the one "Planning Council Calendar" suffice?
It 
seems all it had on it was the monthly meetings. If we have just one, it

might ensure everyone saw the overlap of Galileo and Helios, etc. ...
but 
I'm fine with any scheme, if anyone has any strong advice or
preferences. 

Unlike previous years, we want to keep the "simultaneous" part of 
"Simultaneous Release" flowing through all the milestones. This should
be 
easier than in previous years, since the builds and EPP are better 
automated than before ... and it mostly just requires projects make sure

they "keep up" to some minimal amount to not break the build, continue
to 
run, etc. That is, we'll set the other and exact criteria later, but
would 
think everyone who is already in the build can stay in the build. We've 
vaguely talked about this before, but don't recall if we ever closed on
it 
as a group. So ... if any projects you represent are unwilling to 
participate in early milestones, let us know. (For example, if GEF
wasn't 
willing, we'd be hosed :) But otherwise I'll assume everyone is willing.


Thanks,
