Hopefully this is the beginning of a real dialogue between those that call the shots and those that fire the actual bullets. Come prepared to ask questions, those of you invited. Things I've seen and heard lately that should be brought up are:
- The service distributor vs the service receiver view of the new banner
- The inconsistant implementation of the standards. Look at the following sites (not picking on anyone, just grabbing some with different looks) and compare their implementation of the standards: http://www.voc.state.va.us/index.html , http://www.boa.virginia.gov/ , http://www.governor.virginia.gov/ , http://www.virginia.gov/cmsportal2/ , http://www.sbe.virginia.gov/cms/ , http://www.ehealth.vi.virginia.gov/
- How often will the banner and related standards change? And how much notice will Webmasters get?
- What *really* happens if someone refuses to use the standards?
- Whatever happened to the statewide content management system plans from way back?
- Who ate all the apple danishes?
