Discussion 

- Team Photo

- Global gateway

- GEO site user scenarios Identify user scenarios for GEO site including different levels, cf Susan's getting started Usability. - Who is using the site? - What info are they interested in? - Scenario = task-based analysis - Observation of users? how?

- GEO site user survey How do we take this further?

- Previous charter review Review of previous charter, what went well, what could have been done better - But should not spend too much time on it - Maybe identify sub-elements

- Current charter review Set out road map of work for the new charter

- Outreach resources Re outreach, identify web developer resources across the web inc in languages other than English, include such a list of resources on the site?? - Make wider discussion about resources we'd like to see

- Language attributes - guest speaker Consider future use of language attribute, get a strong sense of where it's going, language vs/& locale, etc - Presentation by AP (chair, Core WG) who has done much work in this area

- Liaising with other i18n groups Clarify GEO liaison with the other I18N WGs & W3C activities - Good to discuss with core group how we interact with them, eg work on language attributes - We are sometimes having to find solutions to problems people hadn't understood very well - We need to ensure we get buy in - AP concerned we ensure we have adequate collaboration - Exciting & inspirational for us in GEO to hear about future developments from the other I18N WGs - Discuss process issues, which goes 2 ways. Core will want to produce material that geo will package & publish on their behalf

- FAQ and article production Discuss how we could improve the production of FAQs, etc - Tactics - Stumbling blocks, what holds us back - wiki?

- I18n approved logo Discuss I18N tick logo, cf CSS, HTML - motivation for I18N developers

- Web best practice Discuss best practice with web where it's at now vs best practice for the future - should we clearly indicate in our material what's pragmatic now vs - - how we'd like it to be


- update on discussions about site improvements with Shawn Henry, WAI

- progress on investigations into use of wiki to support comments on documents - see 
 an example at http://esw.w3.org/topic/geoFaq1
