-Based on GEMINI design review on 9/28, the GEMINI plan to produce v1.1 between now and GEC14 is this:
+Based on GEMINI design reviews on 9/28 and 10/5, the GEMINI release v1.1 to be released at GEC15 is defined to include:
 
- a)  Focus on GEMINI  tools that include primarily existing LAMP and INSTOOLS modules, to provide (respectively) active network and passive host measurements.
+ a)  Continue to support GEMINI tools in v1.0 that are based on LAMP and INSTOOLS modules, to provide (respectively) active network and passive host measurements.
 
- b)  Postpone the testing and integration of the new GEMINI architecture until after GEC14 (since there is no chance that it could be useful by GEC14);  complete and integrate it later,  at a time TBD.
+ b)  Introduce the new GEMINI architecture with the BLiPP Measurement Point and the Measurement Store (MS) modules, to provide an alternate way to gather passive host measurements.
+
+ c)  Use the current rspec extension approach to load and enable tools on nodes:  active network measurements (Lamp modules), Type-1 passive host measurements (INSTOOLS modules) and Type-2 passive host measurements (BLiPP and MS modules).
+
+ d)  Use Periscope installed on GN to observe Type-2 passive host measurements.
+
+ e)  Include NewUNIS operational service (IU) for use with BLiPP and MS modules;  retain OldUNIS operational service (IU) to support legacy modules;  modify instrumentation script to push configuration data to both OldUNIS and NewUNIS.
+
+ f)  Introduce flexible authentication and authorization 
 
  c)  Focus on target aggregates including protoGENI sites (e.g., Utah) and InstaGENI racks.
