10 Initiatives with Volunteer Leaders



All,

	Below are 3 projects, 5 discussion topics, and 2 Admin tasks,
and the volunteers offering to lead them. There are still plenty of
initiatives that still need leaders (see
http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/suo/email/msg13447.html), and new ideas
are always welcome. Co-leaders are welcome at any time. 

	Each leader will kick things off and seek participation, so
let's all help them build some momentum.  The discussion topics will be
released one-at-a-time, but the rest of the efforts will run in
parallel.  If a given effort starts generating too much email, it will
create its own discussion list and report updates back to the group.
