Hey Tom and Sally,
I just wanted to give a status report of my meeting with Louise Kitchen yesterday. Four main issues were of Confirm Central were discussed: legal loose ends and ramifications, user interface, functionality, and future enhancements. Starting with the legal aspect Louise wanted Mark Taylor brought into the process. She felt his experience from EOL would be useful, and would help make any seams between EOL and CL disappear. I am setting up ameeting for early next week between Mark T., Mark G., and Alan to get this process rolling. The user interface Louise thought needed some work she definitely did not like the colors of the website. She had good comments on how to improve the look and feel. We will try to incorporate Louise's suggestions as quickly as possible. I am not to concerned about these comments since we have spent the last 4 weeks developing functionality and have not yet focused on this issue. Louise was happy with the actual functionality of the site. She actually said we did an excellent job. Finally, on future relases she wanted us to focus on Financial & Physical Power, Financial & Physiacl Gas in the U.S. She felt that this is a market where we could make money, where Enron has enough volume that we could really relieve some pain on our counterparties. Other commodities such as Liquids, Global Products, Metals, she felt either did not have enough voume to justify the business model or would take to long to integrate into CL. As far as additional features to the site incorpoating an importing function for CP data was high on the list, next was reporting confirmation statistics, exporting data, and finally automatching. Take away message from the meeting was that Louise was extremely happy with the site and our progress to date. Brad
