[epf-dev] EPF monthly call - 4/8/10 - meeting minutes

[Ricardo Balduino <balduino@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello EPF community,

First of all, apologies that we did
not send a reminder note with a proposed agenda before this meeting.
However, the meeting happened (thank
you for those who joined). Minutes are captured here:

Participants:

Colin O'Neil
Zach
Ricardo
Bruce
Ana

Discussions:

Bruce made updates to environment practice
Not another version yet, but will soon
be posted
Work is done, got some feedback from
people

Colin O'Neil - consultant - welcome
Colin
Colin has been using EPF Composer and
Rational Method Composer for 4 years - all his work centered around that
He has seen companies use these tools
and extend them in ways not thought before
He wants to present us soon what types
of customization organizations are doing and suggest improvements to the
tool

Bruce mentioned AUTOSAR - GM produced
methodology using EPFC - very detailed model of what they do in the auto
industry, represented aspects of the source code as Work Products, hundreds
of WPs, fewer tasks and roles

Ricardo to ask Steve and Mark what is
the status of OpenUP course - any updates since our last conversation (i.e.
remove graphics for copyright protection purposes)?

Ricardo to ask Bing if EPFC calls on
Google calendar are still valid

Ana - wanted to have Scrum as a practice,
instead of breaking it into smaller practices - see Bugzilla: 267073 (Ana
attached the published site there)
Ana is working on Lean practices and
will open a bug for that
Ana will present this material (Scrum
and Lean practices) on next month's meeting (May 13)
Student in Britain modeled ITIL using
EPFC - Ana can present that in a later meeting


Best regards,

Ricardo Balduino.
