[healthcare-wg] OSFA/Healthcare Working Group

[Alessandro Vernet]

Since I never introduced myself before, I will start with that. I
co-founded Orbeon, and over the last 5 years our focus has been on
building Orbeon Forms, which is an open source product to create web
forms applications. We are a member of the W3C, and our product is
used by health care companies, governments, as well as in other
verticals. I am passionate about technology, how it can improve the
world, and I am thrilled about the OSA initiative.

Now Anthony, getting to your questions, I think having a call once
every two weeks would be good. In my experience Skype doesn't work
very well for conference calls unless you have only 3-4 participants,
as the host has to call every participant, and re-call them if they
drop out, which can be pretty disruptive both at the beginning and
during the meeting. I think using a regular bridge would work better
for this. If we have less than 20 attendees, Yugma
(http://www.yugma.com/) provides a bridge for free.
