[Design Patterns] OSDPL Large group working group meeting tomorrow, Wednesday at 11am PDT/2pm EDT

[Allison Bloodworth]

Hi everyone,

A reminder that tomorrow (Wednesday) at 11am we will be holding the  
next large group working group meeting for the Open Source Design  
Pattern Library (OSDPL). Information on connecting to this meeting via  
the conference call line & Breeze can be found at: http://uidesignpatterns.org/meeting-7-16-08 
.

We will have OSDPL meetings every week, but they will alternate  
between large group meetings, which will be more focused on the  
strategy, structure, and governance of the OSDPL (this week is one of  
those) and smaller working group meetings working on things such as  
pattern creation & review.

Going forward, in terms of our process for discussing OSDPL issues,  
feel free to either send your comments to the mailing list or post  
them to the wiki, but please remember to ping the list if you've made  
comments directly on the wiki that folks should review. The lead on  
the questions will be responsible for transferring answers sent to the  
mailing list onto the wiki as necessary.

Here's the agenda for our meeting tomorrow:

Briefly review the current answers to OSDPL discussion questions 3-9  
(I've updated them based on edits suggested at our last large group  
meeting): http://wiki.fluidproject.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2883725) 
  - If possible, please do your own initial review before the meeting,  
and either send comments to the mailing list or put them on the above  
wiki page in the "Discussion" section under the question you are  
addressing. (Reminder: these are the answers to the questions for our  
internal group, and we will be creating an abbreviated version of any  
answers we use on an externally-facing FAQ.)
Discuss where the most current version of the design patterns should  
live (e.g. Fluid wiki or OSDPL?) since the OSDPL is still in 'beta'
Walk-through of the current version of the OSDPL, with a focus on  
information architecture issues
Discuss the following information architecture questions thatJess sent  
out to the list last week:
> 1. How does the design pattern library connect to the Fluid  
> component library, UX Toolkit, and other documentation? and other  
> Design Pattern Libraries?
>
> 2. How will contributors interact with the library and what will  
> they contribute?
>             those who submit their pattern
>             those who want to critique a pattern
>             those who want to use a pattern


Hope to see you there!
Allison
