100502 - Bootstrap Development Strategy to Show Open Source Can Improve SDS
100503 -
100504 - Follow up ref SDS 76 9622, ref SDS 58 9622.
100505 -
100506 - Ted asked about progress on OHS/DKR?
100507 -
100508 - Eugene Kim explained progress has been slow developing technology to
100509 - solve complex urgent problems, using open source methods under
100510 - planning on 001017. ref SDS 76 9622
100512 -  ..
100513 - The same day, on 001017 Eric Armstrong reported a breakthrough for the
100514 - OHS/DKR design and planned to release open source code soon.
100515 - ref SDS 75 0001
100516 - ..
100517 - On 001018 Eric reported a snag in the design. ref SDS 78 M4W7
100519 -  ..
100520 - On 001025 Doug Engelbart issued an OHS Launch plan that called for
100521 - contributors to comment using anchors, which Doug had incorporated
100522 - into the Launch plan so that people could gain experience with
100523 - Knowledge Management. ref SDS 80 00VU
100525 -  ..
100526 - A response on 001025 demonstrated how to accomplish Doug's objective
100527 - to use anchors that aid Knowledge Management. ref SDS 80 V64H
100529 -  ..
100530 - On 001027 Doug reported that contributors did not follow instructions
100531 - to link comments to the OHS Launch plan. ref SDS 81 OH9N  This aligns
100532 - with a report on 001012 that open source contributors do what they
100533 - want. ref SDS 72 PT5M
100534 - ..
100535 - On 001031 Jack Park reported that the OHS/DKR team did not have
100536 - enough knowledge to develop Knowledge Management. ref SDS 83 I67L and
100537 - ref SDS 83 ADK2, which aligned with understandings from the meeting at
100538 - SRI on 000615. ref SDS 50 H67O  Eugene confirmed this understanding
100539 - today. per below. ref SDS 0 RU5O

100545 - On 001121 Rod Welch submitted a letter explaining why Knowledge
100546 - Management is difficult to design, and offered to sell SDS under a
100547 - license agreement with the Welch Company so that the team can learn KM
100548 - by using SDS to begin doing KM, per Doug's letter on 001025. Learning
100549 - KM by doing KM would expedite design and development of OHS/DKR using
100550 - open source. ref SDS 87 0001  This offer reflected Eric Armstrong's
100551 - report on 000824 that Doug was modeling OHS/DKR architecture on SDS,
100552 - ref SDS 62 PU5N, and on 001026 Doug had commented favorably on SDS
100553 - during a telephone call. ref SDS 81 XV6F
100555 -  ..
100556 - On 001122 Eric reported progress on OHS/DKR cannot be continued due to
100557 - complexities of the design, ref SDS 88 0001, which aligns with Jack's

100565 - greater diligence. ref SDS 90 QW8I
100567 -  ..
100568 - Grant Bowman reported that KM is too difficult to accomplish using IT
100569 - and diligence. ref SDS 90 X8PW
100571 -  ..
100572 - There has been no progress on the Welch initiative.
100574 -  ..
100575 - On 010122 BrowseUp demonstrated technology to link web pages on the
100576 - Internt, ref SDS A1 0001, which showed promise of supporting the
100577 - Hyperscope objective set out in the OHS Launch Plan submitted by Doug
100578 - on 001025. ref SDS 80 ADK1  BrowseUp enables creating links without
100579 - consent of the author. ref SDS A1 GHR2  BrowseUp proposed using
100580 - OHS/DKR project to use BrowseUp for the purpose of evaluating cost
100581 - savings; at the time of the meeting, BrowseUp had no record of use
100582 - showing viability of the technology. ref SDS A1 NN5G
100583 - ..

100594 -  ..
100595 - On 010325 Jack reported slow progress due to difficulties creating
100596 - effective design for Knowledge Management, ref SDS A7 7Q6K, reflecting

100599 -  ..
100600 - On 010329 Jack notified that SDS in Nexist is not the Welch program,
100601 - but encompases similar capability to strengthen Doug Engelbart's
100602 - original Augment program under a different name, but using the same
100603 - acronymn ref SDS A8 XZ4K
100604 - ..
100605 - On 010403 Jack published architecture for Nexist using

100612 - align with Jack's planning on 000623 for an "engine" to process topic
100613 - maps. ref SDS 52 2915  On 001130 Jack proposed an "engine" to improve

830866 -        environment for technology to strengthen alphabet technology,

830871 -    locations in different documents.  Ted explained commercial
830872 -    potential for legal work.  This opportunity was supported during

830967 -    Pierce, reviewed on 000515. ref SDS 42 0042  During the meeting
830968 -    John Deneen opened the record on 000327 that shows Doug's
830969 -    explanation of knowledge, linked to Doug's 1972 paper, and set in
