211301 - Visit to California Successful Funding for Fleabyte Not Approved
211302 -
211303 - Henry enjoyed the visit to the Bay Area a week ago to attend Doug
211304 - Engelbart's 80th birthday tribute sponsored by SRI, and held on
211305 - 050129, shown by the invitation reported 050119. ref SDS 12 0001
211307 -  ..
211308 - Apparently, Doug paid for Henry's trip, which included business
211309 - meetings last week after the party for Doug at SRI on Saturday,
211310 - 050129.
211312 -  ..
211313 - Today, Henry was disappointed that no assurance of financial support
211314 - was given, but rather he was encouraged to commence publishing
211315 - Fleabyte for promoting civic journalism, per Henry's letter on 050110.
211316 - ref SDS 9 UQ9L  Henry's letter on 050112 presented plans to apply
211317 - Doug's ideas for an ABC improvement method for aiding augmented

211319 - apply the "C" activity in Doug's ABC scheme. ref SDS 10 AJ7W
211321 -  ..
211322 - Jack Park was very gracious during Henry's visit by driving Henry to

340507 - Henry related today that his meetings in California last week with
340508 - both Doug and Jack seemed supportive of SDS.  He mentioned that Doug
340509 - was pleased by Henry's announcement on 050126 that SDS can be used for
340510 - editorial memory to publish Fleabyte. ref SDS 13 WI5O
340512 -  ..
340513 - Henry further indicated today that, during private meetings with Doug
340514 - last week, Henry cited SDS as the only product supporting the concept
340515 - of "organiztional memory," which is listed in the ASB at Boeing filed
340516 - on 040818, ref SDS 5 S69N, and later sent to Doug on 041027,
340517 - ref SDS 6 WF5U, and subsequently also submitted to Henry on 041221.
340518 - ref SDS 8 SQ6T  On 041110 SDS unique capabilities for intelligence
340519 - support were reviewed. ref SDS 7 FO3H  Henry had previously made this
340520 - observation in a letter dated 050117, and reviewed on 050118, but
340521 - which was not distributed to the group. ref SDS 11 MF5W
340523 -  ..
340524 - Henry gave the impression today that Doug was disappointed by Henry's
340525 - comment that "organizational memory" is currently only supported by
340526 - SDS.  Doug showed a paper or possibly several papers he had published
340527 - years ago that used this term.  During the call today, Henry seemed to
340528 - indicate that Doug did not demonstrate any technology that supports
340529 - organizational memory, as set out in the ASB citing POIMS, ref OF 5
340530 - 1101, and further in the NWO. ref OF 12 PWVQ  Henry explained today
340531 - having seen a demonstration of Doug's technology some years ago, and
340532 - did not report anything on organizational memory at that time.  On
340533 - this occassion, Doug did not further demonstrate support for
340534 - organizational memory
340547 -  ..
340548 - Doug may have drawn from Henry's comments, perhaps in combination with
340549 - the ASB defining a technology standard for "organizational memory,"
340550 - and which Doug received on 041027 along with a transmittal that, also,
340551 - mentions "organizational memory," ref SDS 6 MW6H, that Welch claims
340552 - rights of some kind to this phrase, and Doug disputes any such claims,
340553 - similar to Jack Park, who objected on 000403 to Welch having rights to
340554 - linking technology. ref SDS 2 W546
340556 -  ..
340557 - Today, I explained to Henry that Welch makes no claims on the term
340558 - "organizational memory," just as this was conveyed to Jack on 000403
340559 - regarding linking. ref SDS 2 W546  Both are generic terms in the
340560 - public domain, as noted previously on 041110. ref SDS 7 TV5K  The
340561 - record on 000403 explains that SDS support for "dynamic linking" in
340562 - conjunction with "organic subject structure" seems unique in the
340563 - literature.  At that time, Jack did not cite other technologies that
340564 - support this combination. ref SDS 2 W555
340566 -  ..
340567 - On 011210 Doug wrote a letter to Terry Windograd at Stanford saying
340568 - SDS has unique capabilities, which he did not specify. ref SDS 3 JL5I
340570 -  ..
340571 - In any case, POIMS explains a concept of personal and organizational
340572 - integrated memory and management, ref OF 3 6221, that describes SDS
340573 - functionality.  The POIMS concept and SDS support seem unique in the
340574 - literature and the technology industry.
340576 -  ..
340577 - Organizational memory was adopted as a simple "intellectual bridge"
340578 - for people to begin considering the larger concepts of intelligence
340579 - support and Communication Metrics, reported on 040615, ref SDS 4
340580 - Y55R, and this confirmed in a letter to the aerospace company.

491304 -    1.  Glad you had a productive and enjoyable trip to California for
491305 -        Doug's 80th birthday tribute at SRI a week ago on 050129.  With
491306 -        Jack Park playing gracious host, and Doug singling you out
491307 -        during the ceremonies for supporting his work, in addition to
491308 -        paying for your trip from Montreal (??), ref SDS 0 UI5O, this
491309 -        sounds like good progress on goals for civic journalism with
491310 -        Fleabyte. ref DIT 1 0001
491312 -         ..
491313 -    2.  In our discussion today, you described recent collaboration
491314 -        with Thomas Homer-Dixon, ref SDS 0 UA7N, who was mentioned in
491315 -        your correspondence a few weeks ago, ref DIT 1 OM6I, for a
491316 -        review you did on his book: "The Ingenuity Gap." ref SDS 9 4S4L
491318 -         ..
491319 -    3.  Today you explained that Mr. Homer-Dixon has expressed interest
491320 -        in contributing to Fleabyte on concepts of "augmented thinking"
491321 -        for learning at the high school level, and that you have
491322 -        already begun an article on this issue. ref DIT 1 CN7G

491328 -    5.  I mentioned in our call today discussion along the same lines
491329 -        yesterday with Morris, who teaches graduate engineering at San
491330 -        Jose State college, and, also, works at Intel. ref DIT 1 2P8F
491331 -        Perhaps the record yesterday can help shape your article along

491335 -    6.  As well, when time permits please follow up with professor
491336 -        Ransdell cited in the letter on January 27th (shown below).
491337 -        Today, you recalled reading the letter while travelling to
491338 -        California last week. ref DIT 1 TP9F  Joe's analysis of
491339 -        education, learning, and communication (referenced with links
491340 -        below) could make for lively collaborators on your article, and
491341 -        possibly lead to the kind of help you are seeking for managing
491342 -        and editing Fleabyte.
491344 -         ..
