Minutes

• Motion to approve the Minutes (Jane/Tony)
• Vote: (3-0-1)
• Vice-chair: Discussion has been held to find a replacement for Charlie Mead. We are waiting for an official appointment by John Quinn.
• Update from Bo
  • Bo presented the EA model generated from the spreadsheet "tool" Ron and Jane have been developing
  • The only change is the addition of parties in the Actor icon.
  • Organized the classes into packages based on the meta-model.
  • Will relate parties between steps
  • non-descript roles like Governor should not be reused
  • Roles that are more fully expressed may be re-used
  • There are places where the role type and role name are generic.
  • We should not name the classes the same as the types
  • The problem space analyst appears twice
    • Could not be reused because the role is being fulfilled by a different party
• Update from Jane and Ron
  • Jane, Ron,and Bo discussed the spreadsheet.
  • Discussion turned to questions about the meta-model.
    • We need to differentiate between external facing products, and the tools used internally.
    • We do differentiate between published, and undercover - not published as a product. Should we type them at governance, methodology, management - this would migrate upwards.
    • The advantage would be the nature of the artifact.
    • Would apply to a proliferation of roles.
    • Ron: Proliferation would cause panic, unless we only show types.
    • Bo: Since role and behaviour are sub-typed by governance, methodology and Management, can we derive the the artifact from the behavior?
    • Jane: I think that is true.
    • Ron, Bo, And Jane need to discuss the sub-step/Major step problem
• Table of responsibilities
  • Lifecycle Activity Diagrams (Item A) Charlie is gone, and Bo does not have time.
  • Ron discuss with Lorraine, will need helper.
  • Will try to get AbdulMalik involved.
  • Austin: Reach out to Freida or Dave Hamill to pair with ArB member.
  • Ron: Would be happy if we can have a-c done by the WGM - it is aggressive.
  • Austin: One of the rate limiting factors is the change rolling out of use of IP. It is an ideal time to reorg, but also a risky time.
  • Vitality will be a major discussion topic at the TSC in Atlanta.
• E: BAM New work - Pass 2 Need additional organizational support for discussing the vitality process.
• Ron will be offline in the end of April, so he will only be available for two more calls.
• Adjournment at 6:00pm Eastern
