[Portland] DAM-4 / Portland project

[John Cherry]

Hi all,

Next week is the Desktop Architects Meeting at the Googleplex in
Mountain View, CA.  We have a slot in the agenda for an update on the
Portland project.

It is difficult to tell from the registrations at this point what our
representation will be from developers that have been working directly
on the Portland project.  I know there have been good things happening
in the last 6 months.  The xdg-utils relating to Portland are being
included in distributions and development kits.  I know the architects
would be interested in current development around phase 2 of the project
(cross-desktop services).

Anybody on this list planning to attend DAM-4?  Would be great to bring
the architects up to speed on current developments, issues, and resource
needs.  Whether you will attend DAM-4 or not, there is a very short
preparation slide set that would be very helpful for covering Portland
at the meeting.

Waldo/Kevin have covered this material in the past.  If you guys or
others would like to do this for DAM-4, it would be great.  We will need
this information by June 7 in order to get it into the agenda.

Thanks in advance.  Hope to see some of you at the Googleplex next week.

Cheers,
John
