Darius,

Finishing up the current one in the svn by Friday to allow for UUIDs in
households in order to allow for remote sites to sync. I will alert you
thereafter.

Rodger,

Thank you for your efforts to pull this up. I will go through the document
to get more information which i believe will give us something to brainstorm
in the conference. The household definition i created is more generic though
may not be right for now but a starting point.

Burke, Thanks for adding it to the items to be brainstormed in the
conference. Hope it will have a better face by then. :p
