Subject	DTP Meeting Follow up

I want to thank everyone who participated in last
week's meetings: I think
we really made a lot of progress in the consolidation, and this shows great
promise for the success of DTP. I'd like to take a moment to update the
group on the current status, and suggest some steps for going forward.

In the original set of DTP strategy calls, we talked about having a
face-to-face consolidation meeting followed at some later point by a
charter writing meeting. We also said that we would like to have Bjorn
present at the second of these meetings. As it turns out, Bjorn will be
in
Concord, MA on May 12 (Thurs), and has expressed interest in meeting with
us to prepare DTP for the June 11 and 12th board meetings (which would
be
the creation review). Given the large amount of progress made last week,
I
think we have enough material and consensus to make this move. We would,
of
course, welcome anyone who wants to participate in person for that day,
and
I can make a teleconference number available for dial-in at the appropriate
times for remote participation.

Next, some suggestions for moving forward with DTP:

   Let's cancel the DTP strategy (Thurs) and DTP consolidation (Wed)
   regular meetings, since I don't think such general discussion will
serve
   a purpose any longer
   We designated leads for each component area last Thurs. I'd like
to work
   with each lead to insure that appropriate follow-up meetings are
being
   held, so we don't lose momentum.
   Let's compile a DTP mailing list where meetings can be announced
and
   general discussion can take place. As a start, let's use the addresses
   in the "To:" line of this current message. Please let
me know who should
   be removed and added to the group.
   I have the connectivity break-out group notes from last week. Once
I get
   the SQL development tools notes, then I can create one "consolidation
   notes" document to be posted in some manner (as determined
through
   discussions with Bjorn) on the DTP web site, so the rest of the
   community can review it.

Other items/thoughts/comments?
