Action Item Update - ToIP Approved Deliverables Template and Companion Guide

Scott Perry  previewed the draft Templates for the ToIP Documents and Spreadsheet deliverable and the Companion Style Guide for use by members.

David Lucatch asked regarding our Logo and TradeMark being registered.  Judith Fleenorsaid that she had spoken with Daniel Scales for LF earlier today about that very subject, and there is no registration that has been made.  David Lucatch said he had a good TradeMark lawyer that he works with.  Judith Fleenor mentioned that there might be advantages to doing it via LF, in the even any trademark infringement needed legal support.  It was agreed that if there wasn't a big cost difference, going through LF might have it's advantages.   David Lucatch and Scott Perry agreed to be called on to come up with a recommendation for the SC.

Everyone agreed they like the direction of the Style Guide and Templates.  Scott Perry will finish the Style Guide, and then it will be sent out to the Communications Committee for review and comment by Judith Fleenor

BLOGs for Special Guest Speakers - discussion

Everyone thought that the Ontario Gov presentation went so well at the ALL Members meeting that we should do a BLOG about it.  John Jordan said he already had Alex Metcalf working on some notes for it.  Jim StClair volunteered to help draft the BLOG Post.

A discussion what had about members writing BLOG posts.

Drummond Reed Well, if there is a blog post from trustworthy Member, that is, you know sort of Personalizing that experience of the kinds of problem space we're dealing with and how trust or a few solutions will help address it, I think that's fantastic content, in other words, the more our voice can sound genuine and authentic as in directly from our from our Members is shows, we know what we're talking about.   They need to be well done! Right... we don't want to publish something that's was created  out of my iPad during a stop on a on delayed flight or something unless it's really good, but the words as long as it meets our sort of quality requirements. I certainly think if we start having a lot more content on the blog and we're tweeting about it that's overall you know if it's good quality content that's going to increase our visibility in the market.

 Paul Knowles I think the expertise that we have here is like huge, right, so they're they're not going to be rubbish blogs, they're going to be really good.  They might be opinionated, but they'll be backed up by you know some really good stuff.

Judith Fleenor mentioned that we must have a well defined criterial for what types of BLOGs we could post and how to vet them.  This topic of discussion will be continued at a future meeting
