New Discussions:

Marc Gibeault started a new thread from some of the email discussions  
- "Chandler thunderbird extensions". Chris posted a suggestion that  
we extend handling of email headers to support Chandler items. Marc  
suggests we move forward with this idea.

Mimi posted about stamping, communications and the ecosystem. She put  
together a text based storyboard to describe all the possible  
permutations and combinations of a Chandler user sending out stamped  
items to other users. She detailed out the experience when each of  
these users updates.

Mimi started a new thread on Sharing URLs/Rationalizing UUIDs  
treatment/ACLs/Export based on a number of developer discussions that  
were brewing. This is kind of an inventory of problems that have been  
identified and potential solutions.

After reading the dashboard spec, Grant posted a couple of questions  
about ticklers and reminders. To summarize all the clarifications...
1) Events appear in the NOW section when...
	+ If you have a start-time relative reminder ie: 5min...it would go  
into the NOW section 5 min before the event
	+ If you have a custom reminder (date), then it would go into NOW on  
that date.
	+ If you have no reminders, the event goes to the NOW section at the  
event start time.
2) Using snooze, just has it re-enter the NOW section when the snooze  
interval is up.
3) Setting a custom date tickler for a recurring event only applies  
to that single occurrence, not the series.

Continued Discussions:

Lisa responded to Bobby's reply to the Scooby 0.3 spec post  
indicating that you could have a webapp pre-populate the body of an  
email message and provided an example.

Philippe and others responded to the "bridging the gap email". A  
summary of this thread is in the works.

Furthers discussion continued around the How basic can we stand for  
email? thread which is soon to be fully summarized.

Likewise, there was more dialog around Email options: email  
submission to collections.

Philippe responded to an old email about the Chandler target user  
group. He reiterated that having personas is a good idea for our  
products and we should be mapping back to these personas in the specs  
and designs. We should also provide some names for our personas so  
people can get used to referring to them by real people names ie: Bob.

Lisa forwarded a post to the design list that she had sent to the  
ietf about RRule simplification for interpersonal calendar GUIs -  
questioning whether or not RRules are too complicated. Mimi responded  
with a bunch of user related questions to explore how complicated the  
rules need to be in order to be useful.

we are interrupted in our work place.
