*Discussion*

Rodger noted that planning for the Member Meeting session is going well; so 
far
there are confirmed speakers from Michigan, Penn, UNC, and Texas A&M.

The group discussed XMPP next steps. Deke suggested we first make Ben T.'s
Wildfire server a regular meeting place, then set up Jingle, then pursue
cross-client interoperability; there was general agreement. A list of 
available
clients is at http://www.jabber.org/software/clients.shtml. There is also
interest in looking at cross-server interop; [ACTION] Deke will get a jabberd
2.x server set up at Penn.

A new version of the XMPP/SIMPLE interoperability I-D by Peter St. Andre et 
al.
is at http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-saintandre-xmpp-simple-07.txt.

The PIC WG now has a wiki; the group discussed how to make use of it.
[ACTION] All will review Candace's wiki proposal
(https://mail.internet2.edu/wws/arc/wg-pic/2006-03/msg00025.html) and Reply 
All
with any comments. [ACTION] Rodger will get Ben T. to update the PIC home page
and add a link to the wiki.
