Weekly meeting

Agenda

  1. Idea: are weekly reports really a blog? Would that be distracting or useful? If not, is the Wiki a convenient place, or would SVN / Word be better?
  2. Nice multi-monitor tool (and free): Winsplit revolution.
  3. Weekly reports will be...weekly (every Thursday). If you'd like something placed on the agenda, either add it to the Wiki or discuss with Dr. Jones.
  4. Robotics research group: a good name? A naming contest?
  5. Discuss weekly reports
  6. Writing: review with a group member before bringing writing to Dr. Jones.
  7. Final report schedule revision:
    1. Today – complete outline (no text written) with all sections above, at least one item per paragraph.
    2. 18th – outline to text (rough draft).
    3. 25th – second draft.
    4. 2nd – final draft.
  8. Anthony: visual servoing introduction
