actively reviewing our options during the next few weeks.
III. Email Update – Janine Roeth
Janine presented the committee with an updated report on the progress of the Email Advisory Team (EAT). EAT asks that the ITC a) review and endorse the following Policy recommendations, b) approve the actions within implementation and c) support the critical components that enable the next level of implementation, including the Enterprise Directory. The policy recommendations are as follows:
ITC endorses the document pending a slight revision. Minor changes need to be made in the document, including adding specific technical and cost figures for page 3, number 3: Ensuring the funding/budgeting for timely replacement of hardware and software and regular maintenance contracts.
After the revisions are made, the committee suggested that EAT consult with other groups on campus to discuss process/procedure and the specifics of implementation. Among those involved will be the Registrar, CCT, JOG (which includes the Assistant Deans), who will see and comment on the document and recommendations in early February. After any revisions from those groups, the document will be presented to PAC in late February/early March. Assuming that PAC approves the document, implementation teams will begin their work in March 2002.
