- State of Projects:
- The ACCIS web page is under construction. A temporary
location was given out in an email.
- Review of “to do” items:
- Jim will set up a website to review email questions.
- Communication questions:
- The email codes that were discussed at the last meeting
will be used.
- In order to pass information to the appropriate people
within divisions/sections Jim is asking that each representative submit
alias lists to him. These lists are to be submitted and maintained by
the ACCIS rep. Jim will make sure the alias reflect your most recent
list.
- Please add Kathy Fisher to the ACCIS alias list.
- Dig review:
- Shawn gave a review of how ACCIS came to be and what we
are hoping to accomplish. He also handed out the Executive Summary of
the report which was given to DSAC, DIG, and ITC.
- SLA's are good for the organization and where they are
centralized services he feels they should be used. SLA's should be
defined and developed for all centralized services.
- Project list discussion / Action item list:
- Active Directory - We should be able to move
people into the CIT beginning in November. SCD is beginning on Monday
August 2, 2004. HAO and Comet have not joined in yet.
Divisions/programs not currently participating in the CIT would be able
to join beginning in November. The ADTF will continue and will
discuss further its role within the ACCIS context. Jim will follow up
with Tim to understand the ADTF and ACCIS.
- FTP - Aaron will get back with us on this.
Preliminary research only at this time, need to research options,
design, and implementation.
- Calendaring - DIG recommended a person be hired
to merge room reservation system and meeting maker locations. The
position was declined by Presidents council - and placed on hold at
this time. Shawn hopes to have a plan for how this will work and the
task force by next meeting. Give suggestions on calendaring to him.
- Central Authentication - Currently underway but
much research is still needed. Want to make sure divisions give inputs
and their individual requirements are included. Pat, Mark, Bill, and
Shawn met and discussed in general how central services projects should
be managed. Basic recommendations in with functions, scope, and how it
will work are welcomed. These will be handled as projects. Need to
select a project manager to lead this group. The project should be
setup as a project team, have defined parameters, a set structure, and
regular reports to ACCIS. A SLA is in draft form will be sent out
when ready. CSAC will review it at the next meeting. Should be
handled by CSAC and the priority has moved up. Aaron will talk to Al
about his thoughts on how to proceed with the central authentication
and FTP project structure.
- Directory Services - Joint project between
F&A and SCD. WAG has done some preliminary policy work on privacy
management and security issues. Unified policies have not been written.
This task is more complex that originally thought. Shawn, Aaron, Pat,
and Jeff C. will get together to do a review and refocus the project.
There is an estimated September start time.
- Electronic Mail - Legal has developed an email
retention policy - Pat will send out a draft of the policy for review.
A SLA is being developed for email. Centralized mail boxes are being
evaluated. SCD has new hardware that could support SCD, MMM, and the
director's office. SCD will lead this effort and Pat would take
responsibility for MMM's involvement as the pilot project.
- Standardized Documentation - A documentation
standard format needs to look at one way of sending info (pdfs etc).
Past DSAC and other group items will be brought into our group and
continued instead of being left behind.
- Software Licensing/Management – The DIG proposal
needs to be reviewed and ACCIS responsibility determined.
ACCIS items will be assigned as projects and people will be assigned.
- Web site design:
- Who is the intended user? Admin's, sys admins, temps,
students, it will be a consistent beginning point for most people. The
site will most like evolve over time but will be a location start from.
- The help desk info for each division should be listed?
- The web page should help guide people to find what they
are looking for. Identify things as a general service and not always
the corporate name (meeting maker-calendar).
- Should highlight the centralized services (use layman’s
terms so people may understand) Group all in one set.
- Good conversation came out of this.
- Text lists of items will be handed out and Jim would
like comments back so he can have the site developed. Whereto start, a
definition, then a list of admins, property, and so on. Committee info
page will have links to other groups and project information.
