RE: Block Architecture

Hey, Ed - that'd be great if you can bring in some other companies!  I'm also keen to see what you Ford folks come up with re: architecture in social spaces.

Sorry to say, I cannot make the meeting on Wednesday, due to internal Boeing conflict

I'm in. I have a task to deliver an overall reference architecture here by the end of April as part of our strategy development, so we're starting to spend some energy in this area. I've recently met with a few other companies that might get involved in this (and hopefully our other work) such as WalMart.

Sounds like a good idea!  I haven't looked at it in awhile.  As I recall, the next major step (beyond continuing to validate, refine and get agreement) is to identify any standards work (from anywhere) that is going on, per subject or technology.

Hi Ann and Mark, while we are waiting for the workshop details to firm up, and since we have essentially been looking at the block architecture as the basis for our (the SBCG) input, and revisions/action items to the architecture as the output.  What do you think about spending the next couple of calls looking at that document in preparation for the workshop?
