1208 - Summary/Objective
1209 -
120901 - Followed up work at ref SDS 5 line 67, ref SDS 1 line 50.
120902 -
120903 - Mike is planning to report to Jim by the end of next week, OB 971031,
120904 - on his review of Communication Metrics. Heavy schedules indicate this
120905 - target may slip.  Possibly Communication Metrics can support this
120906 - effort.
120907 -
120908 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0000 to Tom, with copy to Jim to confirm these
120909 - understandings.

1213 -
121301 - Mike advised he has not had a chance to visit with Tom yet to find
121302 - out what Communication Metrics is all about.
121303 -
121304 - Mike indicated he committed to submit a report to Jim by the end of
121305 - next week, OB 971031, on cost savings potential for Communication
121306 - Metrics, per telecon with Jim last Friday, ref SDS 4 4490.
121307 -
121308 -     [See discussion with Tom on 971030 about Mike's progress, ref SDS
121309 -     8 line 94.]
121310 -
121311 -     [Mike called Jim on 971103 per telecon on 971104, ref SDS 9 0957.]
121312 - ..
121313 - Mike said he is tied up the early part of this week.  He plans
121314 - to talk to Tom on Thursday or Friday, or the early part of next week.
121315 - If he has any questions following his discussions with Tom, he will
121316 - call me.
121317 -
121318 - I explained my discussion with Tom a few minutes ago that he will be
121319 - in classes on CEFMS the rest of this week and part of next week.
121320 -
121321 - I will follow up on Wednesday of next week about progress, but urged
121322 - Mike to call any time for support, if needed.

1216 - Analysis
1217 -
121701 - It would be helpful to get Mike's written review comments to both
121702 - reports on Communication Metrics, ref DRP 1 line 97, ref DRP 3 line
121703 - 23.  The writing will help Mike begin to work with the depth of the
121704 - material.
121705 -
121706 - Jim might be able to provide me a copy of Mike's analysis, and I can
121707 - prepare follow up for Jim to pursue in developing a constructive
121708 - dialog.
121709 -
121710 - Generally, limited time to consider a complex set of new ideas, in
121711 - light of heavy schedules for Mike and Tom, makes it difficult to meet
121712 - the target date for a report to Jim that is carefully thought out and
121713 - aligned with controlling factors.
121714 -
121715 - Possibly support can be provided to develop drafts which Mike can
121716 - edit, to save him time and ensure alignment with the range of issues
121717 - involved relative to span of attention.

121719 -    [See discussion on 971029 showing possible slippage in Mike's
121720 -    review and report schedule, ref SDS 6 line 100.]

121722 -    [See discussion on 971030 showing review and report on schedule,
