Hello,
 
There will be a 
telecon on Friday, May 11 at 2:00 pm EDT (11:00 am PDT) to discuss proposed 
changes to the Configuration & Change Management Discipline.  The call 
is expected to last 1 hour.

These proposed 
changes are the result of a number of issues identified in the last month or so 
with the current structure of the OpenUP/Basic library as it relates to the 
C&CM discipline.  Relevant Bugzilla entries are:

In summary, I 
propose we create a "configuration_management" package within the 
collaboration package to capture the CM content, including the new task.  
The motivation for this change is the fact that Configuration Management is a 
prime enabler of effective collaboration, is a core capability for any software 
development effort, and it spans multiple disciplines (as evidenced by 
176260 and 176257).  Whether or not we move the current Change Management 
content to this package is still to be determined and will be part of the 
discussion.
 
Since the release 
date fast approaches and we do not want to make any structural changes in M9, I 
would like to gain consensus on the way forward so these changes can be 
implemented this month.  Please review the above bugs prior to the 
meeting.
 
 
Thanks,
Chris
