Bill,

 

As usual I won't be able to call in for this one, but some feedback on the
three draft charters:

 

MFD Alerts:

 

- Problem statement seems to end suddenly - seems like we should have a
wrap-up paragraph that also lists the document(s) being produced.

- Line 54: "DefineNew" -> "Define new"

- Milestones: Not sure about having the initial working draft, prototyping,
and WG last call all complete in Q3 2011, but otherwise the milestones look
OK to me.

 

CMMI:

 

- Problem statement seems to end suddenly - seems like we should have a
wrap-up paragraph that also lists the document(s) being produced.

 

CIM Printer Profile:

 

- Line 35: funny color of "interoperate correctly".

- Problem statement seems to end suddenly - seems like we should have a
wrap-up paragraph that also lists the profile(s) being produced.

 

Thanks for writing these up!

The PWG Process requires new working groups to have a charter that is voted
on by the PWG as a whole. Working Groups were envisioned  as having a
specific, defined and limited set of objectives, and an corresponding end
date.  However, with the quasi-permanent nature of the WIMS/PMP working
groups, we have fallen into the mode of initiating new projects as they seem
reasonable, without going through the formal PWG process of creating  and
having PWG-wide approval of  specific charter. This may lead to projects
that do not have the  awareness and/or approval of the overall PWG
membership.

 

At the last face-to-face meeting, three WIMS/PMP projects were identified.

It was agreed that these projects should have project charters and overall
PWG approval before we proceed. I am creating draft project  charters for
review by the WIMS/PMP, with discussion intended over the mail list and at
the next  WIMS conference call, Thursday April 21 at 1PM EDT. The charter
draft the CIM Printer Profile is at
ftp://ftp.pwg.org/pub/pwg/wims/wd/wd-CIMPrinterProfile-charter-20110420.pdf.

 

Please review and comment.

 

Thanks,

Bill Wagner

Chairman, WIMS/PMP
