Hi

first, apologies for the long lag in updating - ironically, too much happening.

most significant being that we are all off to Boston for the Groove Partner's briefing and then the Profession Groove Partners Aasociation conference. 17th-23rd september 2002

i realise now that few people knew about this - should have posted . the events themselves are not secret, only the discussions.

while the core meetings are partners only, the PGPA agenda was up to us and a rare opportunity has been lost - to allocate one day to invite real user (companies) to meet with the developers at one place and chart out a plan for their needs. So much needs discussing that does not compromise NDA.

of course the Magi people can use use this opportunity to "get us all in one place" and .... :) just kidding but if there are folks put there who would like to use this opportunity where all developers will be in the US, to contact and meet up with us, I am sure the pgpa agenda can even now be flexed to include an open session with Groove's blessing.

stupid of me - there is so much concern for NDA etc that it mind blocked us into thinking only internally - while the real need is for us to open out now to the user community - without compromising Grooves own initiatives.

the next pgpa meet for sure must include the target of all our efforts, the end user.
