Adelaide WEIRD WG Summary

[Burke Chris-CCB007]

These are not the official minutes, but rather a summary of discussion for
the Area Directors. Chris
---

The WEIRD WG discussed five documents (web page prototypes [Jones]
[Monette], multicast paper [Bosovich], wireless paper [Burke], BOF Guide
[Burke]) and recommended changes / improvements. Several new participants
volunteered to help develop content for the public web site. The BOF Guide
attracted a lot of interest, and a sub-team formed to develop and publish
a BOF Guide for the Pittsburgh meeting. It was also recommended that the
sub-team follow-up with digests of the BOF minutes and presentations, in
addition to the pre-BOF information published for Adelaide. We discussed
progress against the working group charter and agreed on four action items
to complete between now and Pittsburgh: get the rest of the "Hot Topics"
papers written; launch the BOF guide sub-team activity and prepare the
Pittsburgh BOF Guide; assign root site and webmaster for the public web
pages; bring the web site on-line with BOF Guide and Hot Topic content
before Pittsburgh. The chairman reminded participants of the original
WEIRD WG charter, which calls for progress assessment and a decision to
re-charter / disband WEIRD in the Pittsburgh timeframe; discussion of the
issue will be opened on the mailing list this week.
