Discussion items
Item | Who | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Videoconferencing | BlueJeans vs. GoToMeeting (vs. Zoom) BlueJeans is coming from AURA, but we've seen some negatives:
Frossie to check out quality of BJ at IPAC and see if anything can be improved. Need to make a decision soon whether we want additional BJ features. | |
| LSST 2015 Meeting | Jeff Kantor | Registration is open. Tuesday and Wednesday are devoted mostly to DM-specific sessions. Plan to use available slots on Monday and Thursday afternoon and Friday morning as possible. Some people will have conflict with Cadence workshop and hackathon. System Engineering will hold plenary/project wide session Monday afternoon on Verification and Validation and Monday 11:00 am to 12:30 pm Operations session. DM Leaders are expected at both. All suggestions for topics should be posted to confluence page: New hires joining after the All Hands are allowed to have travel to All Hands paid by the project.

LDM-240 updates | Kian-Tat Lim | Kian-Tat Lim will review last draft this week, suggest any mandatory updates, freeze for conversion to JIRA. T/CAMs should be prepared to enter the entries in their rows of LDM-240 into JIRA the week of June 1 if possible, but no later than . This will be followed by a review of the whole picture; the deadline for completion of a new version of LDM-240 in JIRA is . Latest integration by Gregory Dubois-Felsmann is in confluence: LDM-240 updates, Spring 2015 and uploaded as the latest (non-preferred) version on Docushare (see http://ls.st/ldm-240*). Note that the current preferred version in Docushare is internal version v26 of March 19th, 2015. Once in JIRA, the DMLT will continue to review, identify dependencies, ensure explanations, clarity of milestones, meta-epics, epics, etc. Xiuqin will be moving a few things into the next cycle as items are transferred to the DLP project in JIRA. Frossie will be fleshing out SQuaRE dependencies on Thursday with GPDF (and advice from KTL). Jim will be discussing priorities with KTL before he leaves Wed AM. Simon will discuss priorities with KTL Wed AM.
If T/CAMs find resource issues (too much work in too little time for available personnel), they should bring those up with KTL. |
| Development Process | Kian-Tat Lim | Remind developers: if you're merging to master, be around to fix it if it breaks. Force-building your branch first is recommended. Things will get easier as the CI system improves. Python standard will be rewritten as "PEP-8 with deltas" to make compliance and compliance checking easier. Cross-team code reviews?
|
| FY16 budgets and staffing assumptions | Jeff Kantor and Kevin Long are preparing material week of May 26, for discussion with T/CAMs week of June 1. | |
| Miscellaneous reminders to T/CAMs | Jeff Kantor | Please keep providing updates to hiring page, FYI, email coming that will ask for diversity stats (report in December, mid-year update) Please submit MPR narratives, estimated actuals by June 15 this month. We need to identify a schedule and dates for monthly "topic discussions" for T/CAMs such as documentation, JIRA - EV process updates, etc. We should pick a regular day of the month. Jeff Kantor will be on vacation June 12 - June 28, working at UW June 29 - July 3. |
| Solar System Science collaboration meeting at UW last week | Mario Juric | How many asteroids will we find? NEO community is mostly concerned with finding asteroids in one night for re-observation the next night; we're looking at data from up to two weeks to discover asteroids. This has led to some erroneous conclusions about our strategy and prospects. They seem somewhat appeased, but this may continue to be an issue. |
| Upcoming events | Kian-Tat Lim |
|
| Technical discussions RFC-53 - Getting issue details... STATUS | Waiting on GPDF (and any others) to confirm a time
| |
| Conference/meeting reports | Tim Jenness | Where should these be placed? Since they may include frank comments and product evaluations, they should be in a non-public place. DocuShare seems like the best default.
