DISCUSSION

- Use certificates or use usernames and passwords?

Slide Deck on Collaboration Platforms

- A code sprint to look at next steps for COmanage code is scheduled for next week.
COmanage Demo at 2012 SMM
Q: Do we still plan to demo running code at Spring Member Meeting?
A: Yes
- It would be good to publicize the COmanage demo ahead of the SMM.
- If COmanage v. 0.5 code is tagged prior to SMM, we'll plan to send out an announcement with links and promo the upcoming demo at SMM.
