- <p>This is a brief explanation of some of the topics we should discuss:</p>
- <ul>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">short presentation of the partners
- (15 m. each).</span></li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Consortium Agreement.</span>
- I will send you a draft asap, and we may
- discuss possible amendments by email; it would be nice to have it
- signed for the kick-off.
- This point should take almost no time, unless there are major
- issue - e.g on copyrights or background proprietary technologies
- which have not been solved by email)</li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Project Roles and Bodies.</span>
- We should define
- <ol>
- <li>Roles:
- <ul>
- <li>Project Manager (that should be Prof. Andrea Asperti)</li>
- <li>Eploitation and Dissemination Manager (that should be Bernd)</li>
- <li>Work-package leaders (the leader should belong to the site
- responsible of the Work-package)</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- <li>Bodies:
- <ul>
- <li>Project Coordination Committee (PCC) one for each site + the
- Project Manager (and the EDM ?)</li>
- <li>Project Dissemination Board
- one for each site + the EDM (and the PM?)</li>
- <li>Workpackage teams (even for WP0)</li>
- </ul>
- </li>
- </ol>
- We can fix all the roles by email, if you agree. We shall set
- up specialized mailing lists for each body (if required).
- Of course the roles may largely overlap, but in any case we need
- people who can promtly react. You may already start sending me the
- relevant information (comprising email, telephone, etc.).</li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Scheduling and location of the first
- and the second meeting.</span>
- The second meeting (and annual review) should be in Bologna
- from February 19 to February 20 (just after MKM 2003).
- Since KUN is responsible for WP1, I would suggest to do the
- first meeting in Nijmegen (july/august)</li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Deliverables for the first six
- months.</span>
- We have three kinds of deliverables:
- <ol>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Technical:</span>
- 1.a, 1.b, 1.c, 2.a (1.3 should be ready at month 3).<br />
-
- The only software here is the exportation module 2.a (that will
- require some joint effort between Bologna and Rocquencourt and
- a sufficiently stable version of COQ). This is a point to be
- discussed in the kick-off.</li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Managemant:</span>
- 0.a (self assesment parameters and criteria)</li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">Dissemination:</span>
- 7.a (Dissemination and use plan).</li>
- </ol>
- I would expect each site responsible for the deliverable suggest
- a procedure and a precise scheduling for collecting material,
- distributing the work and preparing the draft.
- The draft should be ready some time (15 days?) before the deadline,
- to get approval by the PCC.
- We should also probably agree on the format of these deliverables
- (e.g. LaTeX).
-
- Any other technical issue relative to the preparation of these
- deliverables should be discussed during the Kick-off.</li>
- <li><span style="font-weight: bold">MOWGLI web site.</span>
- We are setting up the MOWGLI web site and a CVS repository.
- We plan to have a first prototype for the kick-off, and we may discuss
- its design and functionalities there. We could possibly need a few
- administrative document to grant you an access to the CVS repository
- (we have to check).</li>
- </ul>
-
- <h2>TECHNICAL FACILITIES</h2>
- <p>Full network access is provided, as well as the usual presentation
- facilities (Video Projector, Overhead projector).</p>
