Draft teams & project list
We are working in to main directions:
1. ongoing enhancements to the CCN system
2. Preparation of CSuite to the level of a 1.0 product
We have a target date for a shippable product of somewhere between Sept 1
and Dec 1. We have other targets (to be set) which are earlier so as to
achieve the goal! Projects to be included in v1.0 are marked with a * (and
possibly a number to indicate priority).
Please review the following and *send me as much mail as you can* on the
projects/teams you are involved in, and possibly others! I will attempt
to include or select appropriate content and summarize early next week --
before the meeting.
