  16. DPCF Site Links, etc. • General Site Access • The DPCF Web site is free and easily accessible by redirecting your Web browser to Member Discussion Group • The DPCF Private Discussion Group has been launched and is also free; however, to access the chat area, you must follow this simple two-step procedure:

  17. Additional Actions Suggestions • All members should submit a short list of any ideas which can contribute to this initiative (particularly important for members that could not attend the Ft. Lauderdale or SD meetings). • All members should forward information regarding other companies or government agencies that should be invited to join the DPCF Questions • What day of the week and time would be best to schedule or teleconferences? (EST, GMT-5) • Would web conferences be helpful initially or better postponed until we have more content to review?

  18. Summary The DPCF has gotten off to a great start since being announced only 15 months ago. Our members possess a vast resource of knowledge and experience in the communications and business continuity fields. A key factor to our success will be whether we can share our knowledge in a style comprehensible by people that are novices in this area. This is the proverbial “ball” we must keep our eye upon.
