MEETING NOTES

DISCUSSION

  1. CMDB Release 2 and the Incident customer satisfaction survey were released.  No reported issues from the release.
  2. The cutoff for testing this week is Tuesday at 2 pm.  We are cutting off a day early due to the Thursday holiday.
  3. Last Monday we reviewed the list in its entirety and marked many easy to complete items as high priority.  Bill has begun work on many of these items.  He has started 715, 813, 943, 738, 780, 787, 897
  4. The group feels that there are still items on the list that can be removed.  Process Owners to please check all the items listed for your Process to see if there are any items that can be removed.  Especially check items that were requested in 2012 and that are low priority.
