Subject: [gnso-osc-ccc] Summary of Sub-Team Meeting

 

CCT:

 

This is just a quick note to report on the status of Sub-Team: Task 1
(Steve, Chris, Ken) activities.  

 

We had a productive hour+ conference call on 22 April at 1900 UTC.   

 

We discussed the Business Requirements document that was produced last
September and took a look at several existing "Drupal" sites including
http://atlarge.icann.org  as well as www.drupal.org.    We noted
features, capabilities, and requirements that were also contained in the
requirements document.   

 

We agreed upon the following Action Items:  

 

1)      Ken will reach out to Marc Salvatierra, Ritsa Panagis, and Joyce
Thomas to discuss a specific approach that the sub-team intends to use
in creating a set of high-level business requirements for Phase I (the
"doable" set) of the project.    

2)      Assuming a "green" light, we propose to begin developing those
requirements with Ken (Staff) assuming the heavy drafting tasks,
supported by Steve and Chris.   Target completion -- end of May for
review by the CCT.   

3)      Our concept is that the Bus Reqmts doc will be "dynamic" vs.
"static."   Immediately following production/approval of the 1st draft,
our sub-team wants to begin engaging with Marc in a prototyping activity
the goal of which would be to produce a working GNSO "beta" site that
could be used to illustrate real capabilities based on the requirements
and feature set outlined.   To the extent that any actual prototyping
work informs changes to the requirements, we would dynamically
alter/amend them, as appropriate.   

 

We will be prepared to extrapolate on the brief summary during our
larger team meeting next Wednesday, but we wanted to give you a sense of
where we are and our next immediate steps.
