There is a document RSS feed that you can subscribe to. This will deliver project documents to you so that you do not have to go check the website for them. They will appear in the document feed reader of your choice.

Plans for this week: June 16 – June 20

1. More foundational and analysis work on the proposed modulation schemes will be released this week.

2. Top-level requirements will be listed and presented for review. The purpose of this is to produce a set of project-level requirements that we can bring to the July meeting.

Carried over from last week:

3. SuperPortable User Interface Design Document work continues.

4. Antenna work continues and feed research continues.

5. Requirements analysis (technical) and Position Paper (policy) work on the optional APCO-25 terrestrial interface module continues. I have one volunteer for this effort, and am looking for more.

6. Plans for the July meeting include at least one open meeting. I encourage anyone in or near the San Diego area, who is available on 18-20 July 2008, who has an interest in being involved in the project, to contact me for an invitation. The invitation allows planning for room size and logistics.

7. Policy development concerning openness, open source, transparency, etc. continues this week. Some of the feedback about the project concerned the definition and explanation of what we mean when we say open source. Based on the discussion last week, a draft policy will be offered for review. This will include the web page, mailing list, and documents management plans and policies.

Weekly Report June 9 - June 13

Greetings!


Report for this week: June 9 – June 13

0. I have no idea why carriage returns and line feeds from some of my email mysteriously disappear. I'm trying to figure out why, but in the meantime I'm blaming Frank Brickle and I apologize for the difficult-to-read results.


1. Physical layer feedback gathered and posted.


2. SuperPortable User Interface Design Document work was virgulated, while Frank Brickle phrontistated events of metaphysically fainéantious importance and value to the team.


3. Antenna work began (five San Diego area dishes gathered here) and feed research continued. Who's game for participating in this area? We need more people to investigate, build, and test.


4. Requirements analysis (technical) and Position Paper (policy) work on the optional APCO-25 terrestrial interface module continued. I have one volunteer for this effort, and am looking for more.


5. Plans for the July meeting moved forward slightly. I gave Barry Baines a list of hotels that might work for us. If you would like to attend the July meeting(s) then please let me know so I can invite you. They will be held on the weekend of 18-20 July.


6. Policy development concerning openness, open source, transparency, etc. continued.

more soon!
