Some questions that don't fit neatly on slides so will ask group here.  Let me know if there is a better place to discuss this?

  * Who is the intended audience to program the flows in the workflow engine?  Is it safe to say for now that this is the Folio dev community that does this so apps are integrated out of the box, and we are not expecting Libraries who run Folio to have to do that?  I think it's worth clarifying and stating this, if not for Thursday then at least once the further investigation is complete.

  * Can Folio release a 1.0 without WFE?  I would imply from this discussion that we cannot release until WFE is available because we are not investing in any of the other app integrations (i.e. workflows coded by hand).  This should be stated in PC presentation (my opinion) because what that says is it is putting an unstaffed and scope-not-fully-understood component on the critical path for release.  Or do I misunderstand, is there a path to releasing a 1.0 that doesn't have to wait for WFE?  This would be my own preference the way I see it now, just giving my opinion, like to hear that of others.  I am worried WFE could drag on longer than we think to integrate it and thus delay a release in Spring, whereas we might at least hard code a few simple workflows to get ourselves off the dock for now.

  * The deeper analysis that is proposed - who would be proposed to do that, the TC members in their spare time, or a specific team assigned, and for how long will that investigation go?  Like to know thinking for who would do that and a milestone date at least for how long the investigation takes before we have additional scope data.

Thanks,
Mike
