I like this suggestion a lot (and I think I suggested something
similar awhile ago) but a couple people stood in the way of it when it
was suggested at the TCC meeting 2 years ago. Perhaps those objections
are no longer relevant though.

We've talked about this at previous Sakai conferences, but it hasn't gained any traction to my knowledge. I'd like to restart the conversation prior to this years conference and work on a proposal:

>>
>> * CLE 2.9.2 status

Trying to simplify Acknowledgements so we can be ready for the conference. Still would be good to identify special key contributions.
>> * Tools survey - time permitting. See below.
>> * Jira management - ongoing feedback requested on how CLECC can best contribute to cleaning up/managing Jira.

>> Tools Survey idea
>>
>> Potential goals of a tools survey:
>>
>> * Highlight tools that are available in Sakai CLE but which many in the community might not be as aware of. For example, LTI.
>> * Get a sense of the impact of stealthing or removing the rWiki tool
>> * Identify potential institutions or individuals who have an interest in helping maintain various tools (like rWiki, but could be other tools that need attention as well)
>> * Make clear the status of the Gradebook 2 tool (my understanding is that it is built on technology with incompatible licensing with CLE?)
>> * Make visible the requirements of the Assignments vs Assignments 2 tools.
>> * Get a sense of the use of Contrib tools. Again with the idea that out of this might come some additional resources for development, as well as helping to identify needs
>> * Get a sense of implicit, explicit or emerging requirements and needs overall
>>
>> Or, as Steve Swinsburg says, maybe a simple survey will work for rWiki:
>>
>> "A simple survey would do here:
>> 1. Do you use the wiki (y/n)
>> 2. What so you use it for (options)
>> 3. If the wiki went away, how sad would you be (really sad, a bit sad, meh, I'd just use another tool, I hate the wiki)"
>>
>> CLECC goal is to generate conversation and strategies for information that would be helpful input to the TCC in decision making processes wrt tool needs, and to get input from the community.
