Oliver-Rainer,
I append the corrected version of the notes for distribution:
Granada Plugfest
1) Budget: Verbally approved - PO awaited. The agreed budget is
sufficient to cover organisation of Plugfest but does not cover the
students' rooms
2) Invitations: To be sent out once full budgetary approval received.
VERY URGENT. Visa letter templates to be sent to MV/AB by ML.
3) Arrangements for Plugfest itself on Thursday and Friday in place but
still working on organising the Saturday and the visit to the Alhanbra.
Student rooms reserved but need to be booked and paid for individually.
This follows the pattern for previous plugfests. OpenDoc Society can
subsidise a small number of delegates who need support. ML
4) Programme
Senior responsible of the Spanish Interoperability Framework from the
Ministry of Presidency".
has agreed to speak on Friday morning. This will mean adjustment to the
programme, transferring some talk's to the Saturday morning. A senior
member of the Spanish Interoperability Framework team has agreed to
present. This could be included on the Saturday morning.
5) Internet support
Essential that this should be of a high level of quality. Check with
University Authorities AB/ML. Devise plan B in case of failure by
having access to Plugfest's own wireless access point. AB/MV/BH
6) Special subjects
Microsoft will shortly announce a Real Time Collaborative Editing
Capability in Office 2010. (a competitor to Google Docs capability).
This could be a massive challenge to ODF development. We need to
research,debate and understand how ODF can respond There are likely to
be other Microsoft integration innovations introduced in Office 2010.
An advanced version of OfficeShots will be available at Granada which
will enable any? aspect to be verified very quickly and thoroughly
including Microsoft implementations. This could be scheduled for Friday AM.
It was proposed that the Interoperability Demonstrations should be
scheduled for the Saturday morning
7) Pre-preparation.
It was agreed that for success, the whole plugfest needs to be
thoroughly well prepared. We should agree a list of test scenarios and
identify an Exercise Leader for each.
Subjects should include:
Metadata handling in 1.2
Mixed list Track Changes
Notes
Clip Boards
Desk Top Interoperability.
8) Next Call
Friday 19th March 1200 UTC 1300CET.
