Lessons Learned – OpenGen Webinar
4


     1.        Collaboration on work product with an open agenda around
               the desired product outcome doesn’t work
          •     OpenGen needs to do a better job at clarifying the desired work
                product outcome(s)
     2.        Multiple committees create a tax on people’s time and focus
          •     Focus on delivering the work product first, THEN adoption
     3.        Publishing a rudimentary model without reinforcement of the
               intent of doing so alienated participation
          •     OpenGen will strive for greater clarity around the work product
                and the process in achieving a result going forward
     4.        Perceived leadership on the initiative within the control of a
               single commercial entity leads to questions around
               motivation.
          •     OpenGen will accelerate the call for candidates to elect a BOD
Near Term Goals – OpenGen Webinar
5


    •    OpenGen wants to deliver a contemporary standard for
         genealogical data exchange
         •    OpenGen’s file format will initially be XML-based
         •    First round product ready for review in early 2011
    •    OpenGen seeks to serve as an independently run
         standards body with an influential and objective voice in
         the definition and maintenance of the standard for
         genealogical data
    •    OpenGen seeks to invite widespread adoption of the
         standard by the major players in the industry by the end of
         2011
Long Term Goals – OpenGen Webinar
6


    •    OpenGen will aid in the authoring of the process and
         workflow through which genealogical data preservation
         and exchange issues are considered and executed.
    •    OpenGen will maintain a library of updated documentation
         for the standards of genealogical data exchange and
         preservation.
    •    OpenGen will function outside of the control of any single
         commercial entity or interest.
