Samad -

Finally catching up with the to do list - here is the summary of actions
I have from our meeting on wednesday:

Contact Kirk Gooodall for access to mmolib

Contact Susan Volke for access to TDA

Overall Description:

Target audience is technologists inside and outside of JPL who need to
understand the MTP program in order to be able to submit proposals, etc.
Web site\'s goal is to give them a snapshot of the MTP program, to
convey what future Mars missions are under development, and the
structure of the technology program responsive to those missions.

We owe you a cost estimate which should include the following:

1\) Re-writes for up to 70 Technology programs based on existing
information. Task consists of rewriting/shortening existing descriptions
to make more \"web friendly\" in addition to pulling images from
existing presentations to illustrate each task.

2\) The task section of the site should be database driven to allow
users to search by items like key technology areas, projects, partners
etc. These cross linking terms are TBD, but will be input by the user
everytime a new task is entered.

3\) Design of a look and feel. You like the START design. The design
might suggest elements of key technologies including: Rovers,
Entry/Descent/Landing, Science Instruments, and of course have a strong
connection to Mars. We should follow a similar design concept to START,
providing a slightly different look for the second level designs. We
will not be designing any specific graphics for individual tasks.

4\) Top level categories will be / About Us/ Tasks / Partners / News
/Future Missions / Contacts. We will explore navigation options to make
it as easy as possible for users to get to detailed task information,
realizing they would need to drill down through multiple levels.

5\) The home page will have a general introduction, with an area to
highlight events such as awards/proposal due dates etc.

6\) Hosting: We\'d prefer to host it with our existing production
environment. If you decide it\'s a requirement to host in your server
environment, we need to determine the configuration - \*NIX? Database
backend available? ASP? Cold Fusion? Perl? Our preference is for Cold
Fusion, since we have considerable experience and existing code modules
for re-use.

7\) Attached is a mockup of a \"typical\" task. This will be refined
based upon review of your existing materials, however, feel free to mark
it up at any time.

8\) Navigation at the top of the page will include \"breadcrumbs\" of
the form Focused\>MSL\>EDL\>TaskName.

9\) Partners will be categorized by:\
JPL\
NASA\
other government agencies (DARPA, Los Alamos, etc.)\
universities\
industry

While we are waiting for account access, can you send over an example of
the documents in mmolib and the tdaweb which we can use to work through
our writing estimate?

David,\
\
I took an action to provide a WBS for the technology program and provide
TDAs. The website below (this is not 100% complete, but should help us)
provides a complete portfolio for Mars Technology Program. Just click on
Mars technology program, top-left.\
\
<http://webdev5.jpl.nasa.gov/otis/>\
\
FYI, the following are the managers for elements of the technology
program:\
\
\
\
[Focused Technology\
]{.underline}XSS-11: Samad Hayati\
MRO: Samad Hayati\
MSL: Gabriel Udomkesmalee\
\
[Base Program\
]{.underline}APL: Leon Alkalai\
Regional Mobility and Subsurface Access: Richard Volpe\
Mars Instrument Development program: Sam Kim\
Telecom: TBD\
Advanced EDL: TBD\
Planetary protection: TBD\
Low Cost Mission Technologies: TBD\
Program Development: Samad Hayati\
\
The TBD areas do not yet have tasks. I encourage the area managers to
make sure that all of their tasks are represented. We will try to update
this to represent the program completely.\
