• Initial Software Stack with goal to try and meet GIR software needs
• Windows Installation Steps with detailed documentation along the way
• Windows Configuration (including WAUS, setting up Athena cluster printers, etc.)
• Prepping VM for distribution (sysprep, compression, etc.)

The goals are to design and document the process for creating a Windows based VM intended for distributino distribution to students. Along the way we will need to develop a software list, which we are callign calling the Software Stack, that will be pre-installed on the VM. We also hope to produce a sample VM that can be tested and reviewed by the project stakeholders.

Step 2 Timeline: Design the Initial VM

-4-6 weeks starting Sep 15, 2009- (Estimate completion date for this step is Oct 27, 2009)

Other project have taken priority.  We have also had the good fortune to team up with ISDA and have moved the base VM to Windows 7.  We have also discovered other VM efforts going on within CSS and are regrouping to coordinate work and deliverables.  Time frame is currently up in the air but should become clearer by Feb 19, 2010.
