  3. Overall mission • Well-defined by Doug and the Bootstrap Institute • http://www.bootstrap.org/vision_mission.html • Guiding principle for the project: • Bootstrap everything!

  4. Project Mission • Build the Open Hyperdocument System (OHS) and a Dynamic Knowledge Repository (DKR)

  5. Managing the Project

  6. Comments on Hierarchy • Applies to multiple task forces • Designed to maximize the effort, time, and contribution of motivated individuals • Accountability and conflict-resolution • A role for everyone • Not every position needs to be filled

  7. Task Forces • Development team • Maintaining the DKR • Intellectual Property • Advocacy • Fundraising

  8. Management Agenda • Solicit/assign task force leads • Compile list of interested task force contributors and their contact information • Discussion forums for task forces • Devise short-term agendas and schedules

  9. Technical Agenda • Adam Cheyer’s Session 4 proposal as our framework • Technical features well-documented by Doug • Initial requirements list by Eric Armstrong • Highly iterative development process (bootstrapping again!) • Small set of requirements, aggressive scheduling

  10. Technical Agenda (cont.) • Encourage volunteers to bootstrap on top of our efforts

  11. Open Source Issues • Standards • Forking is not a bad thing! • Licensing • Software • Documents

  12. Initial Technical Objectives • E-mail • World Wide Web • Augment • Source code

  13. Initial Approach • Define XML schemas • Publishing documents • Different views • Editing/browsing • Actions and filters

  14. Case study: E-mail • Record and publish unrev-II and other related discussion lists • Features: • Granular addressability • Back-link management • Annotations

  15. Case Study: Web/Augment • Publish all of the documents, papers, and presentations we generate using our system • Software requirements management • Conversion of existing Augment documents

  16. Bootstrapping Opportunities • Internal bootstrapping • Software development infrastructure • Open source project management • Intellectual property • Funding

  17. Funding Strategy • Funding efforts should occur in parallel with OHS/DKR development effort • Determine funding needs • Investigate creative contributions • Bootstrap Institute handles distribution of funds
