Please review the tentative agenda for the VTK ARB
kickoff meeting <a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/ARB_Meeting_October_2009" target="_blank">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/ARB_Meeting_October_2009</a>.
It is mainly about getting to know each other, establishing roles, and
outlining procedures for working together. There will also be some time
at the meeting to tee up some high-level goals and get our juices flowing for upcoming technical issues.<br>
<br>
(Note that I'd like to keep it short and focused. I'd rather have
fewer, focused meetings rather than trying to get everything done at
once. Otherwise I am concerned that we will lose interest and miss what
I think is an important opportunity.)<br>
<br>
Before the meeting please review the ARB-related pages and make
sure that you are okay with what's there. Go to
<a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK#Development_Process" target="_blank">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK#Development_Process</a> and follow the links to
the VTK ARB and VTK Development Process wiki pages.<br>
<br>
There is some missing information that we will need to revisit such as
the VTK Topic Leads. This table was filled in a while ago and needs to
heavily reworked. In particular I would like to see two names in each
topic (principle plus backup), and I'd like to diversify out of Kitware for the sake of the
VTK community.<br>
<br>
Initially we will use Kitware's TCon number to host the ARB. (In the future we can talk about other options.) To join the ARB:<br>

<br>
Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. I know some of you may have budget constraints, etc. for phone costs, if so let me know and we will look into conferencing you in, or using Skype.<br>
