class under the working name “Corporate Member” (or “Enterprise

The Council discussed various approaches for
including feedback from the members of this new class into the Requirements
Council including hosting an annual meeting similar to enterprise “customer
advisory” retreats.

[ACTION: All] The council will work with their
individual board members to keep aprised of the new membership class.

meeting regarding the road map.

Donald detailed the low interest level for the StAC
meeting on May 5, 2008 in San Francisco to line up with Java One. So far
there are only 2 confirmations (Oracle and Sybase) and only two “pending
travel approval” confirmations.
o
[ACTION: All] Verify if you and your
organization can participate – in particular, we need to be recruiting
our peers in the Planning Council.
o
[ACTION: Donald] Unless there is a reasonable
quorum of 12+ participants confirmed by April 4th, cancel the meeting.
