Sakai connector | Robert Long | Steve Swinsburg | From a recent email from Steve: "With the recent graduation of the Scheduling Assistant from Jasig graduation, I'd like for my portlets (Sakai connector portlet, Basic LTI portlet) to be reassessed and have the same criteria and advantage applied - that is, bundling these portlets with the core release of uPortal eliminates the problem of not enough adoption. " SUSAN Susan send email to uPortal steering committee about bundling. |

Spring Portlet MVC JSR-168 Archetype | Cris Holdorph | Charles Frank | email sent asking if we can move these to unsponsored - Cris update jira, susan update wiki and grupal |
Exchange Mail and Calendar Portlet | Cris Holdorph | Charles Frank | email sent asking if we can move these to unsponsored - Cris update jira, susan update wiki and grupal |
Sakai connector | Robert Long | Steve Swinsburg | no updates |
Basic LTI Portlet | Robert Long | Steve Swinsburg | no updates |
Widget Portlets | Cris Holdorph | Was Jennifer Bourey. Who now? | Recommend graduating this one from incubation. Do we need to replace Jen Bourey's name on this to do so? uPortal steering committee to adopt and has been bundled for several releases already |
Contacts Portlet | Cris Holdorph | Anthony Colebourne | Forgot these were mine, they were not assigned to me in jira, fixing that now. Quick review of jira, looks like several checklist items are not yet done, which I think is probably not true. Will need to do more investigation then contact Anthony. |
OpenRegistry | Susan Bramhall | Benn Oshrin | The incubation status is more or less the same, but under the hood things are happening. UCB is ramping up its engagement (code contributions to begin soon), an updated roadmap is being hashed out, and the community is slowly enlivening. |
Susan Bramhall | Russ Little | The project is moving full tilt and picking up adoptions and commitments for adoptions. The production 1.2 release should be posted very soon, and as you can see from the Wiki and Jira the community is alive and very active. Unicon is promoting the SSP heavily, and we are partnering with 5 colleges on the BMGF IPAS grant proposal. Public release planning and governance are still pending the use of factors in the OS maturity model. | |
Benten | Susan Bramhall | Shoji Kajita | So far, we don't have any progresses except for the session proposal to Apereo Conference. In Japan, we have been finalizing the first version of Japanese translation memory for Sakai CLE but it is not indicating progresses on Benten itself. I hope that Ja Sakai will publish it by Apereo Conference. |
Internationalization CoP | Susan Bramhall | Benn Oshrin | We've been struggling to get engagement from the community for this CoP. I think at the moment the plan is to see if we can get some traction at the Conference, and if we can't then we'll probably have to abandon the effort. |

Sakai connector | Robert Long | Steve Swinsburg | The project has been ready for a very long time (since July or August last year). Incubation is equivalent to provisional in Sakai.

Classifieds Portlet | tim carroll | Gary Maxwell | awaiting reply to email... I've requested that we get together and discuss progress and chart a plan for moving forward |
ThinkSpace | tim carroll | Pete Boysen | i had a meeting with Ian about ThinkSpace, and he is interested in finding out more. we'd like to get him up to speed on the concept and capabilities, so he can be an advocate and evangelist for the product. we also discussed the conference being a good place to perhaps begin to explore the formation of a community of interest around these learning and teaching technologies. A community could include representatives from ThinkSpace, Sakai, and others. shared this with Pete, and he is interested in learning more. he currently has a student preparing a automated demo of the product. this will initially be shared with Ian per above; however, I could see this being a powerful marketing tool in itself. |
Scheduling Assistant | Tuyhang Ly | Nicholas Blair | Gary Schwartz contacted Susan. The Bedework steering committee has decided to adopt and rebrand scheduling assistant into the Bedework project. Needs to be removed from incubation or better yet graduate! DONE send email to Apereo board to approve moving SA from incubation into Bedework Project. |
