Meeting Minutes
================

Attendees:  Carson Holmes, Bob Palank, Gunter Seidl, Colin Oneil, Bruce 
MacIsaac, Ricardo Balduino, Chris Sibbald, John Allan

Discussion: 

1-  Latest discussion on OMG, SPEM, SEMAT, and EPF

- RFP is ignoring SPEM - no need to have different efforts going on under 
OMG
- EPF submitted a response; IBM also positioned how it is building its 
method offering on top of EPF
- We invite others that participate in OMG to submit their opinion (need 
to be a member to post or post anonymously, but you may not be able to 
read responses); Bruce can post it for you if you want to send in your 
comments
- Carson sent Bruce more info about SEMAT - there is more in the works 
besides this proposal to OMG; the SEMAT material has much more substance 
than the submission to OMG (3 year vision) - 10 or so universals are being 
considered in the proposal
- Question: what is SEMAT offering that is not in the SWEBOK?  Needs to be 
investigated when new SWEBOK is published.

2- EPF Release in June

- Release Plan is available at [1]
- The current list of bugs (for content work) is available at [2]
- We encourage you to look at the open issues and contribute with your 
comments, or if you feel like assigning yourself to solve the issue, 
please do so.
- This next release will be a bug fix only type, so no formal review with 
Eclipse is expected. We will post release notes and make content/tool bits 
available for download around June 30.

3- OpenUP with Scrum management practices provided by Colin Oneil (first 
draft)

- Needs some refining - Bruce posted review comments
- Assuming this next release is bug fix only, we may need to work with 
Eclipse (legal review); Bruce and Ricardo to discuss the options, maybe 
make content available only in Bugzilla at this time and prepare to 
officially release it next time.

4- Webinars - potential topics: 

- Colin's work on Scrum practices
- IBM courses around RMC - Bruce could offer a short training course on 
EPF practices authoring
- Bruce/Ricardo could show some of what IBM is doing on the Jazz 
environment - importing libraries from RMC into Jazz for consumption / 
enactment 
- Bob Palank contacted SWEBOK people - new release will be out this year - 
maybe they could give us a preview? Bob to contact them again.

- There was indication from others on the call that Colin's presentation 
on his work with Scrum practices would be helpful to others also building 
content in EPF; Colin agreed to present - pushing webinar to Jun 16 due to 
some participants being attending conference on second week of June.

5- Other topics: 

- Would SWEBOK group be interested in putting their content into EPF 
format? That could give companies a chance to customize the content for 
their needs, etc. Chris and Bob will look around to gauge that group's 
interest.
