There was some discussion about kicking off a Private TCC discussion (copying CLECC on the thread). One option discussed is a TCC review of rWiki. Two TCC members, at least, think that if this happens it should be limited to a one month review, or it would not be a good use of time. We also discussed having more public discussion, which anyone can kick off at anytime. If we want BOF, we need to get a proposal in by March 11. Nobody assigned to do that at the moment.

Timeline is that incubation process will be in draft form at conference for discussion and refinement, then worked on a bit more until being ratified by the Board. People will be interviewed in the process so please let me know if you are interested in participating.

Wouldn't it be good to tell that we think the current community 
involvement in technically supporting rwiki might not be enough to keep 
this tool?

I think this would be a way to tell pedagogical stakeholders that they 
need to gather technical resources if they think this tool still needs 
to be supported.

WDYT?
