in terms of Aperi Development Architecture/Design? 
                Tom: SNIA management
framework technical working group, SMI-S extensions. We should watch that.
Only member companies can participate. 
                John: Dwayne Baldwin
and John are on the working group. Architecture doc due soon. Will find
out when doc available to non-SNIA members. There will be a feedback portal

        b) New requirements for Conforming Incubation
Phase projects? 
                Steps 1-3 done,
5-6 done (thanks Christoph), still need a calling on the download site
from Tom, then we get our golden egg.
