WG Balloting metric: bundling together other PBS metrics measures including balloting in previous cycles, submitting PSS on time and NIBs on time

Dave has not been able to make progress identifying with late submitted PSS's were regulatory. He will try to get this done for the next call. His plan is to list the late submitted projects so that further analysis can be done.

Perhaps one way to minimize the risk of late Project Scope Statements is to communicate that Work Groups should bring forward PSS's to the Monday evening Steering Division meeting at WGMs.

A suggestion was made to create a "CoChair calendar" that indicate deadlines for non-publishing tasks, such as submitting room requests, etc.

The team reviewed the Generic WGMChecklist.doc which Project Services created. It's on GForge at Project Services and is also linked on the Co-Chair Handbook Information wiki page at http://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=Co-Chair_Handbook_Information

Rick took an action item to create a calendar based on the Generic WGM Checklist doc. He will present his work at next week's TRAC meeting.
