[Portfolio] Sakai 3-ish discussion

[Sean Keesler]

Here are some notes I took from the community conference call during our
discussion of the future development:

Relevant notes from 2009-03-16 OSP Community Call

Sean reviewed the changed to the vignettes
page<http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/confluence/x/BoD3Ag>with the
group and suggested that a next step would be to come up with a
strategy for introducing this to the Sakai3 working group. Noah has been
keeping his finger on the pulse of Sakai 3, but others probably could also
participate. Sean asked if others would be willing and able to participate
in conversations with the UX and T&L group, and if so, how do we best do
that? Noah mentioned that there is a weekly UX call that could be used, but
that the main conversations for Sakai3 are small conversations over Skype
and the Sakai 001 bridge with Nathan and a small group of developers. This
group is under a lot of pressure to release a version of Sakai 3 for
Cambridge/GeorgiaTech and we are unlikely to have an impact on its
direction.

Perhaps a good strategy for interacting with the Sakai 3 WG would be to do
so in concert with the T&L group. We recognize that there is a barrier
between how we think. Lynn had mentioned last week that they are primarily
focused on course/project sites. It may be that the readiness of the OSP are
a barrier (in which case, we should talk with them soon to ensure that this
is not the case in the future). Nancy mentioned that Matthiew Plourde
attends the T&L calls and she would ask him for a recommendation on how the
T&L group is interacting with the Sakai 3/UX group and report back next
week.
