Weekly review for the week ending 14th of Feb 2010

Last week I said I would:
  1. GTD Tool selection project
  2. Work with the audit team on the security peer-review that is starting this week (done - luckily did not require too much of my time yet).
  3. Discuss with the local management team about my responsibilities for 2010 (some more discussion - but no decision yet)
  4. Blog on the IBM internal site about taking on the additional areas of leadership in the Sametime team (done)
  5. Wildfire v Status Updater
    • Get resolution to Wildfire issues (done for all services except PingFM - geting help via their forum)
    • Write the blog post about the comparison between the two tools (done)
    • Renew my attempt to convince both teams that they should merge (not done yet)
  6. Build new SUT kit for Ubuntu users within IBM to bring them up to the CF1 code level (not done yet - waiting for details of some extras to be included with the kit)
  7. Prepare Open Client presentation for the Senior Leadership Team (done - delivering the presentation next Monday. Hoping to have a Verde server ready to show them a cool demo of the "IBM Client for Smart Work")
Next Week I will to the following actions (note I sorted them to reflect importance):
  1. Present about the Open Client and its buiness potential to the Senior Leadership Team
  2. Continue discussions with the local management team about my responsibilities
  3. Prepare a report for the Sametime Operations meeting about products updating to the latest programming APIs
  4. Build new SUT kit for Ubuntu users within IBM to bring them up to the CF1 code level
  5. GTD Tool selection project
    • This week I will continue using Toodledo for task tracking because I spent most of this week learning the technical part of how it works and I need more time to fully asses its usefulness
    • I will install the IBM GTD template and learn its features with a view to using it for real the following week
  6. Micro-blogging on multiple platforms
    • Get resolution to problem where Wildfire won't update PingFM
    • Renew my attempt to convince both Widlfire and StatusUpdater teams that they should merge
    • Learn more about other tools in this space so that I can do a full comparison (and/or find other people who know the other tools to work on a joint report).
