  1. TSC Report (Helen/Ken)
concern about quality - quality products and quality meetings.
concern raised that in Kyoto thre were too many new members to have valid quorum for decisions in some wgs.
Patrick: Discussion aobut how you could identify effective quorum. There was a questionaire after kyoto that was filled out. SD committees also found that their committees had very good and experienced quorum.
MIke, confirms - that had good quality quorum in Kyoto.
Andy: At most WGM publsihing does NOT have effective quorum - and this is normal and expected. Have effective quorum on calls.
Helen: Would the co-chairs be comfortable with answering the question after every WGM "Did you have an effective meeting - as per your expected agenda and participation".
AMS: Education alwasy has effective meetings - regardless of quorum. However, RCRIM has some difficulty getting attendees at international meetings. So RCRIM adjusts it's agenda - so that it is effecive.

Is the fact that we are having international meetings negatively impacting the WG's ability to do it's work?

AMS: Not in the case of education - although it is harder to do the job in different countries, but this is not related to attendance at the WGM.
John: The goals of the EHR is to make the products international. In Kyoto many US attendees could not attend; so they adjusted their agenda topics to focus on the Asian audience. Did not get much WG work done in Kyoto, but did a lot of first-time-attendee training. So outcome positively influeceed future work with international engagement.
Freida: Did the WG achieve the objectives that they set for the WGM? Was it an effective meeting?
  • Strong commitment for a questionaire to be submitted by co-chairs after every WGM.
Do NOT like the term 'effective quorum' - prefer 'effective meeting'
  1. Work Group Health
Helen - we should look more carefully at the things that make WGs health based on the assesments on the SD WGs health. Even if there is no quorum.
Why is gForge part of the measurement for the health of a WG?
Project Services used gForge to manage their work. They also use it post items to hyper link to final approved documents.
We want gForge to be part of the WG health evaluation? For publishing and tooling it is vital. ES
Motion: Remove gForge as criteria for WG Health by Abdul-Malik. Patick Seconded. Question called: all in favor
One of the issues is that WGs are not posting their minutes: Electronic Services, Education, International Mentoring,
