RE: Boeing resignations (hopefully temporary for me)

There are some good architecture starting points. The social Headlights task Force started on this path. I suggested one view based on that initial work in the Workshop on Social Standards in August 2013. http://www.w3.org/2013/socialweb/papers/An%20Enterprise%20Social%20Network%20Reference%20Architecture.pdf

PS. I'm online, in our WebEx session, right now.  I'll hang out there for an hour.

Thanks Ann.
I was on the call today and we had an informal chat about use of social web at boeing and the IG deliverables.
Regarding the IG deliverables we talked about the user stories, minor objections and ways to group them.

We also looked at the other possible deliverables of a social architecture document and vocabs.  Personally I think vocabs is being covered quite well in Jame's work, so hopefully that can be built upon.

Regarding a social architecture my thought was that many user stories have pre-requites that are not documented anywhere.  Some kind of overview document that could cover general web and social web architecture, and how that sets the scene for implementors to build user stories could be useful, as it doesnt seem to exist anywhere else.  For example, some user stories might state "Alice is following Bob" but an implementor may not know what that means or find it too ambiguous to get started.  We thought about examining such assumptions together and how that could underly implementations in both the enterprise and micro blogging scenarios which could see varied usage.

Ann,

This is awful news for the group, even if your absence will be temporary and relatively short. I too hope Sandro will step up and chair the IG (I'm not a full W3C member and, thus, ineligible to do so). We'll miss you and hope to have you involved again in three months. Be well until then.

Larry

Hello Social Web WG and IG folks –



I'm writing to let you know my status for the next few months...



As some of you know, I am the Boeing representative to the W3C. I am sad to report that I have not been able to nail down the funding (due on Sept. 30th) for our continued membership.  Thus, day after tomorrow, I must resign all Boeing participants from their respective Working Groups.  This will included dropping me, Adam Boyet and Mark Bryant from the Social Web WG and IG.



Once Boeing drops the membership, no one who is a member may apply to be a W3C Invited Expert.  (This is per the W3C Process, which is very clear on that point. Logically, they don't want companies to 'cheat' on their membership fees by putting people into groups as IEs.)



Personally, I hope to continue with the W3C in some new role after I leave Boeing – as yet, unclear what. For me there is a 3-month awkward phase. In this time when I am still a Boeing employee, but the company is not a member, I may not be an Invited Expert. When I am officially gone from Boeing, I expect to request Invited Expert status.  I hope Sandro will chair the Social Web Interest Group for the next 3 months, and then I hope to pick it up again in my 'new' life. Maybe he'll figure out how to reinvigorate the group while I'm gone!



Since it only occurs once/year, I am going to the TPAC in October  – self-funded, using up my vacation time, and as a 'free agent'.  (To formalize my attendance, I'll be there as an invited guest of Jeff Jaffe (W3C CEO).) Although we are not having a formal F2F meeting of the Social WG/IG, I hope to hold a session on this topic, as well as consult with others  on what we're doing, what they want from "social", and why don't they participate? I hope Tantek, Amy, Arnaud, (anyone else attending TPAC?) will want to share hosting such a session. (It would be interesting to hear any questions you have, or messages you'd like passed along!)



So – have good meetings for the next 3 months. I look forward to reconnecting in early 2016.
