Hi TCC,

I attended this call, please see below. Your ears may be burning :-). I'll
try to attend these and can keep you informed, but you may want to consider
more active participation. There could be an opportunity here.

Cheers,
Neal

Colleagues,

My thanks to the 13 or so folks who participated in our first Sakai
Teaching and Learning (T&L) conference call following the Open Apereo
conference.  It was great to hear voice who've not been involved in awhile
as well as many new participants.  As I mentioned at the end of the call,
I'm following up to update the larger community as well as suggest plans
for a regular conference call.

*CALL SUMMARY:*  Much of the call continued the dialog that was started at
the conference on how the T&L group might collaborate more with other
groups in the Sakai community, particularly the Technical Coordination
Committee or TCC.  There was some review of past community efforts, for
those who were newer to the community, around things such as "requirements
gathering" which have had mixed success and some of the lessons that have
been learned from those experiences.  In particular, the issue of "unfunded
mandates" (i.e. bringing forward requirements without resources to support
the development work) was noted as a concern.  This lead to some discussion
of how the T&L group might be able to get involved in seeking resources
from institutional decision makers.  A complete set of notes from the call
can be found at:
https://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/PED/Wednesday+June+19+Call+Notes

*NEXT STEPS AND CALL SCHEDULE:*  Although I recognize that folks are busy,
I'm going to suggest that we plan for weekly calls over the next 1-2 months
as means to keep our momentum going and also help address the fact that I
anticipate people being out over the summer for holidays, etc.  Unless
there are objections to this schedule, I'd suggest that we continue with
the Wednesday from 2-3 PM Eastern Time day/time as it seemed to work for
the majority of people.

*ACTION ITEM* > *Please reply back to me by Monday, June 24th if Wednesday
from 2 - 3 PM Eastern Time does NOT work for you. * Based on what I hear
I'll either confirm the call on Monday or suggest a new time.

Finally, I have updated the Confluence Teaching and Learning wiki page to
reflect our current work.  You can access this page at:

Thanks, Josh
