BackgroundBackground• Since WGISS early days, 27 Task Teams (TT) have been
created then closed
• Several TTs have produced material (e.g. guideline documents, prototype servers, presentations, ..) that cannot be accessed anymore:– Important loss for anyone who might need this information later– Keeping some of this material accessible would demonstrate the
concrete achievements of WGISS
• “Proper” closure procedure to be followed when closing a TT (or completing a Project)
Page 5
Closure Procedure (1/2)Closure Procedure (1/2)• As a minimum, the following should be accessible via
Internet, hosted on the Project Web Site:– TT template (as defined at the start)– The description of the achievements of the TT– The material generated while the TT was active (e.g.
documents, PowerPoint presentations, ..)
• If possible, prototypes systems implemented by the TT should be kept alive as long as possible
Page 6
Closure Procedure (2/2)Closure Procedure (2/2)• WITT should move the TT tab from the Sub-Group menu
to the “Past Achievement” section
• WGISS 5-year plan, Annex F (“List of Current and Completed Tasks”) to be updated
• If the Project Web Site cannot be maintained any longer, a new site (WGISS or outside) should be looked for and the information should be transferred to it.
• The most important material should be duplicated in the “document” section of the WGISS web site.
