Recommendation

• Service
• Academic areas and training providers wish to
  target specific content to user groups
• Continue to build interest in current services
  (Announcements/TD channels)
• Offer MyEd stats reporting service on project
  completion
• Aim to use new hardware/load balancer for MyEd
  between April and early Aug (resolving distance
  learner and inactivity time out problems)
• Projects
• Bring T D Course Booking work forward and begin
  from May (in year) for end August hard milestone.
• Other interested providers (TLA, Transkills, H
  Safety, Procurement, others)
• Ensure RD for uPortal core upgrade completed
  during April/May prior to JA-SIG conference
• Complete improvements to Catalogue and Bookmarks
  2005/6
