Subject: [Foundation Board] Board Initiatives: Unanswered Requirements Report

Good day,

The world is always communicating and we want to respond appropriately. We believe this initiative is essential to ensuring we expand, succeed, and have a relevant product for a diverse group of interested people. Our initial proposal(s) will be what we believe will get us started down a path to achieving the strategy to respond and respond in a timely manner.

While we have captured our initial thoughts and ideas our requirement was to have a conversation during the Boston Forum and here is what we expect to get out of this conversation:
·        Process/Workflow/System
o   This should address people and behaviors. It is not the golden solution but rather we hope to have a proposal and someone committed to writing it up and circulating it among the community.
·        Data Points to Measure
o   What can we actually measure that is relevant to revealing successes and failures; things we should continue to do, things we should stop doing, things we should try to do.
·        Item to Measure
o   Identify at least one requirement that can be used within the proposed process/workflow/system to learn from (target is to implement).
o   With implementation being the goal, the hope is that this will be seen as more than an exercise in futility.
·        Inspired Individuals
o   Those who will commit to participating for at least one Forum cycle and be available to provide feedback, learnings, ideas, questions, answers, etc; which can be used to improve the process/workflow/system.
These will probably change as it relates to priority and context post-Forum session yet as of today here are the talking points and things to consider as we move forward.
