          1.  Record meeting minutes in a separate file for  each  meeting;
             name each file "ddmmmyy.html", e.g.,

                 12oct03.html

             If  more than one meeting is held on the same day, suffix each
             file  name  with  "a",  "b",   "c",   as   necessary.    E.g.,
             12oct01a.html,   12oct01b.html.   Store  these  files  in  the
             project directory

          4.   Fill  in  the  Present:  line  with  the  names of those who
             attended the meeting.
          5.  Fill in the Absent: line with the names of those who did  not

             bers).
          6.  Fill in the Excused: line with the names of those who did not
             attend  the  meeting  who had a valid reason not to attend and
             who notified at least one group member  in  advance  that  the
             meeting would be missed.
          7.   Organize  the  minutes  based on the itemized list of topics
             from the agenda, plus  any  new  topics  that  are  discussed;
             record succinctly the discussion of each topic.
          8.   As  necessary,  conclude  the  minutes with a list of Action
             Items, including the person(s) responsible for completing  the
             items.  Note that action items need not record all of the nor-
             mal work duties of group members, where normal work means that
             prescribed  in  the milestone schedule.  Action items are spe-
             cific tasks to be completed other than normal work, or certain
             normal  work  duties  that  require immediate attention due to
             neglect or other reasons that caused a delay of completion.
