1)	There was a two hour telecon last Wednesday to discuss the OpenUP poster.  Per sent out some minutes after the meeting (ref: email from Per of November 9, subject: “Meeting Minutes: Slip, Slide, Away and PosterFest”)
2)	Telelogic has offered to donate a half-day (~100 slides) Introduction to EPF course.  The course includes an overview of SPEM, EPF Composer and OpenUP.  The Hands-on tailoring exercises have been updated and are included as part of the donation.  Chris is just awaiting final approval for the donation, but doesn’t foresee any issues and should be available soon.  Chris will put the material into the Eclipse ppt template and attached it to bug #202993.
3)	Ricardo noted that the Eclipse conference in Santa Clara in March 2008 has a call for tutorials (2.5 hrs tutorial).  Ricardo did an EPF tutorial last year and proposed that Chris submit an abstract for the tutorial this year.   Deadline for submission is Nov. 19th.  Chris will look into this. Ricardo will either submit a tutorial or long talk.

1)	The business rules plug-in by Ilog has been approved for donation by Eclipse.  Ilog is currently updating the plug-in to use OpenUP 1.0 (they built it on OpenUP 0.9).  The updated plug-in should be available in a couple of weeks.
