XG public procedures: wiki, mailing-list
steph: we want to have the XG public procedures clear to everyone
... we started as a grass-roots group, using basecamp
... we are transitioning to the W3C XG procedures
<Yesha> could someone post the URL to the "site" of the group?

<Yesha> I logged in and it works well for me (using my w3c) account.
<Yesha> IT IS MINE
<sniffles> lol, thanks Yesha
steph: we have planned an OWEA retreat already, as part of WaSP
<Yesha> COMPAQ 1995 keyboard
<sniffles> could you mute if you're not speaking?
<sniffles> thanks :D
<Aarron> There's sort of a cult following around that keybord
<kazu> sorry to be late, now I'm listening discussion via skype.
<sniffles> hello dave, kazu
<sniffles> no problems
<dave> hi
[mauro introduces himself]
steph: mauro, can you let us know what sort of expectations that W3C
has?
<sniffles> i like how shepazu summarises me so well ;)
mauro: the most important pieces are to comply with the charter
... the minutes should be public and published on w3.org space
... and I know you're planning to use the wiki
... and the work should be persistent and carried on through the
public mailing list
... as long as you use the those, you can use your additionaly
basecamp tools
... I know this seems like a lot of extra work, but it means a lot
in terms of public credibility and openness

mauro: please contact me if you have any questions, I'm happy to
help
... doug is pushy, so CC him, too
<Yesha> I will need to sign out... can I quickly ask something...
Yesha: I have a question about pointers to the curriculum
... we're interested in that for the University of Israel (?)
<Yesha> can u post it
<Yesha> :-)
steph: we are laying the groupwork in this XG

steph: Aarron can point you to the resources we have now
... InterAct is focused on Educators' needs
... and Opera has 55 articles for students
Yesha: we would like these links to be added to the page, and we
will translate them into hebrew
<Aarron> InterAct currently has 11 courses in first publications,
and 15 more in the works for this year to be published in March of
2010
Yesha: we would created top-level summaries in hebrew, but not the
course content
<Yesha> perfect! txs.

Aarron: how can we organize the wiki?
shepazu: I use manual breadcrumbs (see example)
review breakout teams
glenda: should we organize this on the wiki, or basecamp?
shepazu: since the chattanooga meeting was planned before the XG was
chartered, and had limited space, it should stay on basecamp, but
it's up to you
steph: poeple who are interested in attending, they should let us
know
<sniffles> there is room for 4 more people, but it would have to be
out of their own pocket at this point
<dave> when is the chattanooga meeting?
glenda: we are designing the organization at this point, and will
decide if we will stay in W3C at the end of our charter
... or create a new organization
Dave: I'm new here, and wonder if this came out of WaSP or where?
shepazu: a variety of places
... including individual companies
glenda: WaSP, InterAct, WebDirection North Education, and others,
but we are now all working together
... we want to bring everyone up to speed
... who is new to the group
... do we let everyone in who is interested?
... do we ask them some questions first?
... how have you been using this sort of thing in your day-to-day
work? what can you offer, or what do you need?
steph: we want to make sure everyone arrives at the same place
... where to we want to be in 3 years?
... it's very early on
... I'd like some expectations and outcome from this
glenda: I'm drafting the process for new members
Aarron: we need clear roles...

Aarron: when each person joins, we should find where they can and
will contribute
glenda: everyone welcome, but we would like commitment from veryone
... our expectations for good standing will be understanding of
people's situations, but we do want to motivate people and set clear
expectations
dave: Hi, I'm Dave McFarland
... I've been teaching for 10 years... graduate and undergrad
... I've written several books, which are used for training too
shepazu: we should all have bios
steph: yes, everyone should put up a bio, and what you are
interested in helping with
... glenda will put her membership criteria and participation
expectations up on the wiki in the next couple weeks
<kazu> where can I get my login info for the wiki? I'm not sure what
"W3C Acccounts" are ... it's still closed for limited authors?
<sniffles> shepazu, can you answer kazu's question?
every participant should be able to edit the wiki, using your login
credentials

SXSW 2010 proposal
glenda: I've been working on this
Aarron: I'm also organizing one for InterAct
glenda: have you read the owea proposal?
... and should they be combined?
Aarron: I think it's important that they be separate
... they need to see that a larger organization is coming together
... and there's a lot of material to cover
<Aarron> Last year's panel was called "No Web Professional Left
Behind: Educating the Next Generation"
<sniffles> EduTF/InterAct panel proposal for 2010 titled:
Integrate/Educate: Taking Web Standards to the Classroom
ben: I will add a few questions
<ben_friedman> I have the ability to record phone calls with the
push of a button due to our fancy new IP Office setup. not sure if
that is something that would be of value for these or other calls
going forward but thought I'd throw that out.
<dave> bye and thanks
<kazu> I'm AC Rep so tried my account for W3C Member Area to login
the wiki, but failed - maybe I'm missing something
