Hi folks,

I thought it would be a good idea to start cobbling together some open 
task items, and framing an agenda for meetings.

I've put together a *very* light schedule below, along with a potential 
agenda. At this point, I think we need to start identifying the major 
milestones between now and the first release, and finding owners for the 
tasks that need to be done to hit those milestones on time.  Once we 
have a better idea on the tasks, we'll have a clearer schedule.

As previously suggested, I have put what is listed below on Google Docs. 
Please feel free to add in your suggestions / additions, particularly in 
the Open Tasks or Add Your Own Agenda Item areas - the more brains we 
have looking at this, the better :)

Incidentally, I'll be in Vancouver next week, Wednesday through Friday, 
for Linuxcon - if anyone would like to get together in a group and hack 
this into more of a schedule with firmer dates, let me know. :)

LIGHT SCHEDULE:

o KVM Summit - August 15-16
o Website Launch - September
o oVirt Workshop - October+
o Community Infrastructure - People - October - December
o Community Infrastructure - Technology - Now - October/November
o First release - January/February.

Need to determine the major/minor milestones for each of the tasks 
listed above. Once we have an idea of what needs to be done, and when it 
needs to be done by, we can start building a more thorough schedule.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Meeting Agenda / Points of Discussion:

1) KVM Summit - August 15-16

    * Meetings needed?

2) Website Launch

    * Needs owner.
          o A team needs to own this content refresh,  including working
            with designers to get open, reusable content - key to
            ovirt.org belonging entirely to itself
    * Press release (other press coordination may be needed before/after
      launch)
    * Content for oVirt.org page:
          o What are the main messages.
          o What are the main outbound links. Suggestions include (new
            suggestions need someone to drive forward creation of
            content elsewhere):
                + Each sub-project with individual content, contribution
                  info, etc.
                + Governance details.
                + New legal content.
                + Contribution policy - outbound == inbound, all
                  contributions of any  type (code, content, art,
                  translations, etc.) must be under an  acceptable
                  license with necessary source materials.
