Web Management Sub-committee Meeting

March 24, 2005  
2 p.m.

In attendance: Present:
Jessica Brown, Kyle Felker, Cam Johnson, Wonda Riner, Mamie Peers, Earnest Phillips

Meeting Notes:

2:10      Jessica Brown called the meeting to order and showed the committee the WMC Website that contains the charges, agendas, working documents, etc. for the committee.

Mamie reported that the ITCC approved the WMC's proposal that OIT be responsible for DNS. The question was posed:  

  • When will this actually take place?  
  • When will DNS be moved over to OIT?
  • Does the recommendation need to be mandated by the provost to make it happen ASAP?

It was noted that at the previous meeting the WMC had no concerns about the URL policy and decided to table the URL naming-scheme issue.

A discussion ensued about what to do with the usability information we have been discussing and collecting. The following was confirmed:

  • At our next meeting, we will create an outline for usability guidelines that includes ADA compliance
  • Also at our next meeting, we will create a list of a "webmaster sub-sub-committee" - it's members and charges.
  • We will also continue discussions about the possibilities for usability lab - specifically, the resources we need, who to ask... etc.

Kyle provided a speedy update about the Web Trends site license to say that an excessive site license for the university would cost $125,000. But the pricing for a site license is a bit more complicated and is based upon the number of web servers we would like to include on the license and traffic samples for each. Earnest recommended perhaps UNLV should invest in Web Trends for the unlv.edu server while we wait for the collection of server data on campus.

Action items:

  • Jessica will prepare a working document about web guidelines that we will edit at our next meeting.
  • Kyle will provide Jessica with the usability information he provided at the last meeting.
  • Jessica will give Kyle information on the number of servers and site traffic for a quote for a Webtrends license
  • Mamie will ask return with an update on the DNS situation.
