Friday 11th April Meeting Agenda (a.k.a Requirements Meeting)

What are the meeting times and dates with Tandberg, and how regular?
Will we meet via video conferencing?
- Get Feedback on work done to ensure the implimentation more accurate reflects the user requirements/expectations.
Can we store the Tandberg video conferencing meetings on the web server for later use (from a requirements point of view)?

What are the specific requirements and what is implicitly expected from Tandberg in respect to the project deliverables?
Are there connection caps (number of active connections to any single web server)
Is asynchronous access a requirement?
Is client-to-client communication a requirement? Or just Client-Server communication?
Focus on multipoint access (more than just two endpoints communicating)

Ask about Tandberg architectural structure and the significance to our project
What are the supported file types (video files)?
Is there a security model involved with communicating to the server from an application point of view?
What video housekeeping is involved on the server-side that is transperant (i.e. Size limitations for cache, connection timeout length, video section breakdowns, etc)
Does their API shield the application programmer from the underlying implementation? Is all communication completely transparent? (only SOAP required)
Are there minimal connection bandwidth requirements?
Which versions of the .Net framework is supported by customers?
What are the standard and minimal hardware requirements for using the Tandberg software
Is a thick or thin client part of the requirements? And does the solution have to be browser-based or applets allowed? Which protocol are acceptable?
Are we allowed to directly communicate with a database? (Particularly, the video information stored on the server, etc)
- If Yes: Can we get SQL logon plivileages? (As part of requirements, or is SOAP the only allowed means of communication?)
Are we supposed to handle stored data or live (streaming related)?

How much time will we get to present our deliverable to Tandberg? And who is the audience?
Will the presentation to Tandberg be the presentation assessment?

If Silverlight does not meet the requirements what alternatives do expect to replace Silverlight as the plug-in technology?
Is caching on the client-side an option?
Should the deliverable be more GUI interactive and friendly or feature rich?
Should the deliverable have any focus on the maintenance of video (system administration)?
Who exactly is the target audience?

The requirements meeting went well. We got this agenda fully addressed which was great!
