Jason,
My take is that you want to seize the
opportunity of having this meeting and gather interested companies to work
on the MDD plug-in. I particularly don't see any disruption if you want
to organize a break-out session on the topic.
Unfortunately, I can't go to the F2F
meeting, but feel free to contact me with any question.

Cheers,

Ricardo Balduino

Hi Mark et al.:

I propose that we all clarify our interests before the meeting. In order
to help Mark in defining the Agenda.

ESI (my) main interest is defining future actions regarding the OpenUP/MDD
plug-in therefore I would rather use the meeting to identify people interested
in discussing the actual content of MDD. I think that there is no point
in making a presentation of the MDD plug-in itself but rather have a meeting
to discuss what is missing, wrong, extrange and how to address it. Therefore
I suggest that those interested take a look at the OpenUP/MDD plug-in previous
to the meeting, so we can get to concrete actions.

In this sense, in the meeting in Bilbao, both IBM and Cap Gemini, showed
interest around MDD and in this plug-in. So far only Jim has provided valuable
feedback. Is there still an interest from Cap Gemini in developing there
own plug-in or contributing to this? Any other partner interested? 

We have made a new version of the OpenUP/MDD plug-in addressing the improvements
proposed by Jim. It can be found at:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=138867 

I think that if no one has analysed the content, it may be really difficult
to get any real useful results from the meeting, with respect to the OpenUP/MDD
plug-in. 

Mark if there is several partners that are interested in analyzing the
OpenUP/MDD plug-in content. I propose having some time for this. If this
is so, I will be arriving on Monday 19th around 10:45 in Heathrow so I
do not really know what I will take to get to Xansa premises (any hint
- by taxi) and I have my plain back the 20th from Heathrow airport at 17:40
so I do need to know what time to leave.

Another issue I would like to raise, is whether the meeting will be more
targeting ending M3 and planning M4.  I guess the main issues will
be freezing the structure of OpenUP/Basic and Agile/XP. Is this so Ricardo?
If this is the case maybe my participation and addressing the OpenUP/MDD
plug-in maybe sort of disrupting the achievement of these Milestones.

So far ESI involvement in the OpenUP/Basic, even though initially I said
we should contribute to the Architecture Discipline, this has not been
so, so far. So I do not see a clear role (at this stage after not reacting
in early phases) of me at the meeting if only the OpenUP/Basic is addressed.

Any reactions? I am just trying to help Mark a bit and have clear idea
of what the objectives of the meeting are. 

Best regards:

Jason

 I think this is everyone who has responded so far. Apologies if you have

have  spoken to Julian but I can't recall if he is coming himself
or sending  someone from his team. Julian - could you let me know
please?

 There's still room for others to attend - we have a capacity of around
25.
 If you would like to come, please get in touch. The meeting is at Xansa's
 office in Reading, so I will need to get a security pass made up
and  arrange car parking if you need it.

 So far, only Ana has asked for an agenda slot. If you would like one,
 please ask.

 cheers

 mark
