    • Moving UX work from Contrib to main repository

    • 3rd-party license review

      • in progress; Pete is taking this task over from Megan

      • Connections

      • Messaging

      • MyDashboard

      • Page Authoring

      • sData service

      • Sites widget

      • Tools widget

      • Others already exist.

    • UCB will help some with testing

      • Nathan and UCB will clarify what sort of testing and where it should focused based on areas that are close to being done; other areas still need design/implementation work to get closer to final product that needs testing.

  • Post Release

    • Priorities

      • Helping Nathan with redesign process

      • User testing of designs (implemented in milestone releases and on demo server so there is something to use in such testing)

      • full-scale QA testing, not really needed until first release candidate

  • Sakai 3 Code Freeze

    • tentatively scheduled for Tuesday, 31 March 2009

  • Kernel 2 basis for Sakai 3?

    • Go/no-go date is end of January for basing Sakai 3 on K2 or K1

    • Capabilities that depend on very-fine-grained permissions and permissions outside of tool/site model will not be possible without K2, so if going with K1 designs may need some tweaking in areas

  • Georgia Tech Update

    • Working on entifying BlogWow

    • Will coordinate with Anthony on doc to help others with entification/RESTful process

    • Authoring Working Group interest in entification may be mature enough that a closer working relationship with the UX Working Group would be profitable.

    • Clay will share Cambridge/GT top-3 priority list for needed entities

    • Authoring WG has compiled entity list, but not prioritized them yet.

  • Divvying up Design Work
