DRAFT MINUTES

Actions:

Volunteers for SOA Survey Testing

• JimLeous(PSU): Jim Leous leous@psu.edu is interested
• Keith Hazelton: hazelton@wisc.edu
• Sharif Nijim (Notre Dame): snijim@nd.edu

Develop a charge for sub-teams that includes the publication and outreach goals for the team. (Jim Phelps, Paul Hobson)

Establish a New to Higher Education peer-group within ITANA (Chris Eagle, Jim Phelps and ?)

• What would people like to get out of it? 
•  How would we gather agenda items?

Blog posts - planning ahead. One possible topic would be EDM

Capture Panel Discussions

• Intro to the topic - What is it, how do you use it, why is it valuable
• More Advanced: Case Studies of actual practice, what parts were useful, what was problematic, how did you get buy-in 
• Topics: TOGAF, Zachman, Archimate
• Training and Certification, Modeling Languages, Tools, Templates and Artifacts at the Application Architecture Level, Practices Policies and Procedures that help make it concrete, 
• Architecture Patterns: SOA, EDM
• Outreach to Business Partners - Partners you should be working with or partnerships you should be trying to create

Panel Discussion: EA WG - ITANA on your campus as a way of getting buy-in

• UW Madison and Penn State, UBC

Face2Face 2012 Planning

• Like the ability to network with people. Break down into the newbie, been doing it a while, longtimers then remix the folks
• Pool the groups earlier - self-identify early on
  • JISC (rough) description of EA maturity:
    • Explorer: researching, investigating EA, identifying potential change projects, developing a case
    • Adopter: planning, orienting, engaging with colleagues, designing a live project
    • Implementer: initial project under way, with training and support
    • Achiever: First results, impact and value evident - may be hard to quantify at this stage
    • Practitioner: EA is an established professional approach for strategic change and development
• Instructor-led training for the EA 101 portion first thing, then all together later on (can we get multiple rooms for the day for break out sessions?)
• Case Studies

Other meetings we should present at: e.g. AACRAO
