For those of you who weren't at our Athens meeting, we had a 3-hour slot Wednesday afternoon, which to me was quite fun, productive, and exciting. Karen Schneider gave an overview of the history of Evergreen documentation, and various issues we need to consider (available online at http://www.slideshare.net/evergreenils/evergreen-docs-planning-session-2009). A handout based on a document I posted on this list was distributed (and I've attached it here). Then we had a free-ranging discussion on where to go from here. Karen and I volunteered to take the initial leadership roles for the group. The group coalesced on Evergreen Documentation Implementation [or Interest?] Group for our name, allowing us to be DIGGERs. :-) I am attaching the (very informal) notes I took at that meeting. Also, Karen gave a lightning talk on Friday morning, summarizing the Wednesday discussion (her slides are at http://www.slideshare.net/evergreenils/evergreen-documentation-lightning-talk).
Karen and I are planning to have the next meeting of the group during the week of June 8, in webinar format. We're working out the logistics for the meeting, and an agenda--we'll send something out next week. In the meantime, you may want to peruse the meeting notes, and start thinking about how you and/or your organization may want to be involved.
Talk to you again soon, Paul Weiss Co-cat herder, DIGGERs
