3. Reunion Publication and souvenirs

There are about 100 bulletins and 60 song books left and the stock are currently kept in Prof.C.F.Lee's office and Dr.Wong How Ki's home. It is suggested that the bulletins can be given out to organizations concerned. Mr.Ben Tse offer place for storage in his Kowloon office if deems necessary so that the remaining stock can be centrally stored. The materials will later be sent to Mr.Tse's office as needed.

b/ Ms.Au Si Mi reported that there are 20 SST reunion flags left, but no more pins were left for stock.

4. SST new website
Ms Tam Yuen Yin presented the discussion paper on web in order to solicit comments, suggestions and endorsement from the committee members. Members agreed that it is worthwhile to create a site specifically for HKCSSST.

a/ Layout Design and content

Members agreed that the website should provide interesting information that is easily accessed. Ms Tam Yuen Yin will follow up on the final design after incorporating suggestions collected from team members.

Chinese language will mainly be the medium of communication in the new website but articles written in English or simplified Chinese will be posed on the web intact. No translation will be made by the working members.

Some members proposed to post the link of Hester's E-dissertation to the website, details to be followed up later.

b/ Decisions on the target users, content, functionalities
It was agreed that login will be required to access members' personal information; rest of the website shall be opened to public. Two kinds of discussion forum may be created, one for members only and the other to be opened to all. No time frame is set for the moment until the need arises. Mr. Siu Kin will be asked to build the discussion forums.

c/ Web working core group
A web working group(WWG) is formed as follows:
Project Director – C.F.Lee
Project Coordinator – Anna Au Si Mi
Editorial Coordinator – Yeung Chung Kee
Design Coordinator – Tam Yuen Yin
Technical Coordinator – Yeung Man Keung

d/ Implementation and Budget
Members considered that the web will most probably be hosted and managed by a local company for easier communication and technical support. Ms.Lau Mun Yee suggested that there may be discount price on web design from HKU alumni and Prof.Lee Chack Fun suggested help may be from CCN . Ms.Tam Yuen Yin will follow up on the various things on the implementation of the website.

e/ Budget
Members considered that while it is possible to appeal for donations we could try to use our own resources first. We should try to put up a website with just the basic functions and resort to more complex applications at a later stage.

f/ Target launch Day
It is proposed that the site be launched around early November, 2004.

5. A.O.B.
There being no further business on reunion aftermath and the building of new website, the meeting was adjourned at 8:30p.m.

Note: Lots of suggestions on activities and plans are proposed by members during the dinner, one of which is hiking and Ms.Au Si Mi will be the person-in-charge of it. Details of different kinds of activities or plans may be brought up by the members concerned later or to be discussed at the new website.
