All -

There a few areas that we need to small self-lead project teams to start digging into:

* Membership models (including fee structures)

* Governance and organization structure (including how are members represented in organizational leadership)

* Services (prioritizing which member services the organization rolls out first with an eye on a minimally viable organization in March 2017)

* Codes of Conduct/Practice (for both members, the online forum, and the larger Code of Practice)

* Taxonomy of the Body of Knowledge (beginning the work to name the buckets into which we will pour content)

This is your time to get involved. My hope is that you pick one of these areas and help move the organization forward. We are also looking for people willing to lead these project teams.

Also, let's all be realistic about our time. We are all very busy and we are heading into a time of the year where we should be spending more time with our families and loved ones. So with that said, be realistic about how much time you have to devote to ID Pro. I know that all of these project areas are interesting and we all want to hear the results of the work in each area, but it is not realistic to think each of us can participate in each area. I'd rather hear that you can spend a few meaningful hours working on a single project over hearing that you spread the same amount of time across multiple groups.

Lastly, if you think there are areas that we absolutely must tackle in the next six weeks, please bring them forward.

Thanks,
