CRT's
Plenary Presentation (Alan Goldfine and David Flater):
David and
Alan gave a quick overview of the material to be presented at the plenary
meeting (presentation emailed with agenda):
- Nothing
new in the presentation that hasn't been covered at CRT telecons.
- Purpose
of presentation is to bring rest of TGDC up to date on CRT activities.
- Most
of slides in David's portion are about benchmarks.
- More
time is spent on explaining meaning of terms.
- Discussing
expectations of benchmarks, in respect to other kinds of testing.
- Presentation
covers general changes to CRT's sections of VVSG since last meeting.
- Contains
a list of changes made since VVSG 05.
- Slides
cover our goals and what our final results are.
- Discuss
requirements in regards to quality assurance/configuration management.
This is in response to resolution 30-05 and direction of the TGDC at
the December 2006 plenary meeting. It is a replacement/rewrite of material
from VVSG 05. Changes were made since last plenary regarding the timing
of the quality assurance manual per TGDC's instructions. Discussion
text was clarified.
- Presentation
will cover electromagnetic requirements in three categories. These are
updated from VVSG 05 with latest standards. These changes are reflected
in latest draft of VVSG.
Plenary
Meeting (Allan Eustis):
Will have
a better idea how day # 2 will run after today's meeting with subcommittee
chairs. Bill Jeffrey would like to approve sections of the VVSG by subcommittee
after their presentations. Significant portions of CRT material ready
for approval.

We will
continue to schedule CRT telecons for Thursday at 11:00, starting again
