[epf-dev] EPF call - notes

[Ricardo Balduino <balduino@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Participants:

Gunter Seidel
Bruce MacIsaac
Ricardo Balduino
Chris Sibbald

Agenda:

1- update on SEMAT/OMG RFP 

Bruce updated us on what he's been doing
with SEMAT. He's participating on regular meetings with the SEMAT group
to define language and kernel. Bruce will post his analysis of the language
on epf-dev, comparing the kernel language specification to SPEM. The language
spec itself is not ready to be posted yet. The SEMAT group welcomes people
interested in joining.
Summary: complementary to EPF, possible
to align in one spec, the team though thinks it would distract them, so
they are coming up with new ideas. Bruce is planning to propose an alignment,
and propose to incorporate it into SPEM. Some people in the SEMAT group
thinks there could be SPEM features that would be applicable to SEMAT as
well.

2- proposal to move release date to
Nov 30 

Initial release plan defined Nov 15
as release date for EPF 1.5.1.3. However, there are a couple of Bugzilla
items open against content and tool that could be closed in the next couple
of weeks. Also, we are trying to close the Scrum practices contribution
with Eclipse legal. There is general agreement that delaying for 2 weeks
to address these ongoing tasks is better than releasing the tool and content
on Nov 15. New release date is Nov 30. The release plan will be updated
accordingly.

3- status on Scrum practices contribution


Eclipse legal had several questions
that were addressed. There is only one pending on licensing wording. The
hope is to close this review process in the next 2 weeks. There is also
a need for reviewing the proposed content and assess adherence to the overall
practices architecture.

4- confirm December webinar 

There was a person interested in presenting
a webinar in December, but we lost track of emails exchanged with this
person. Please let us know if you are the person interested in presenting
on December 8, 8AM PST. Or if you find an email thread on this (or previous
meeting notes) please send an email to us.

5- solicit volunteers to present webinars
next year 

We had such a great experience with
the webinar series in 2011, we want to extend it to 2012. Any volunteers
or topics you might want to see presented?
Some ideas:
* Ivar Jacobson - Bruce to reach out
to him and ask his interest/topic to present
* Carson Holmes - Fort Medium (sp?)
- tool extension to EPF - Chris to contact Carson
* When should people use the tool and
not the content, and when should people use the content as is? (maybe this
should be a discussion panel instead of webinar?)
* RMC extensions to EPF


Please let me know if I missed anything.
Thank you.

Ricardo.
