Hi Phil,    (01)

Thank you for the message.    (02)

I have a major deliverable due Mon (2/14), therefore Tuesday is 
preferred.    (04)

That said, if there is only going to be the three of us, and if 
there is no added value in meeting face-to-face, may I suggest a 
phone conference (augmented by whatever synchronous collaboration 
tool as we see fit) instead. If we really need to meet in person, 
I am game too!    (05)

 > ... Raylene Pak ...    (06)

The entry in my address book has her as 
<raylene_pak@sbcglobal.net>. I have not quite corresponded w(or 
worked directly) with her before, although we both know each 
other's name well. That would be a good starting point if you 
want to try.    (07)

 > ... Jeff Oloffson ...    (08)

Bill probably meant Jeff Rulifson <Jeff.Rulifson@eng.sun.com>. 
Presumably, he was the system architect for AUGMENT. You can try 
him yourself, or (better still), have Doug get him involved. [I 
was actually surprised to not see him at Doug's 80th Birthday party!]    (09)

 > ...  best way to get Ken Harrenstien involved ...    (010)

I guess if we work asynchronously through email, wiki, etc. (that 
actually would be the preferred mode for me too), I don't think 
we should have much problems. Comments ... other suggestions?    (011)
