All,

The following agenda is proposed for this Wednesdays conference call at 
the usual times of 7AM Western USA, 10AM Eastern USA, 3PM UK and 4PM Europe.

1. Preparation for the Digital Manufacturing Day on October 21st at the 
SC4 meeting in Baltimore. We now have a poster, schedule and 
registration form.

2. Preparation of an "integrated model for digital manufacturing" as 
AP238 Edition 2. The following are goals for the new edition:
a. More flexible so that it can associate GD&T data to many 
manufacturing definitions including those of AP242, AP224,  ISO 14649, 
ISO 13399, MTConnect and QIF.
b. More concise by not including mappings for one preferred set of 
definitions and instead re-using definitions from external standards.
c. More complete by including the enhancements determined during the ten 
years of testing including in-process models, via-points for tool paths, 
and non-rotational control (tape heads).

The new standard should be substantially smaller, substantially more 
powerful and upward compatible with the existing standard. It should 
take advantage of the latest developments in STEP technology including 
the new edition of Partv21 and modular reuse of definitions. It should 
be finished in two years with the first year spent gathering the 
requirements, and the second year spent validating the implementation.

3. Teams for preparing the day and edition:
a. The publicity and promotion team should finalize the schedule and 
promote the event to internal and external organizations.
b. The Edition 2 drafting team should prepare a draft of the new edition 
so that it can be reviewed by all interested parties well before the 
meeting.

I propose Sid Venkatesh as the leader of the promotion and publicity 
team with assistance from Bob Erickson, Jim Kosmala, Larry Maggiano, Tom 
Raun and Alain Brail. Peter Benson who is organizing the SC4 meeting, 
and Paul Van Exel who manages the industry days for SC4 will  be 
available to help.

I propose myself as the leader of the drafting team with assistance from 
Mikael Hedlind, David Odendahl, David Loffredo, Bengt Olsson and Charles 
Gilman.

4. Starting the "Mind the Gap Project" - report back from the opening of 
the DMDII.
