DMLT Meeting Goals

  • Weekly meeting to keep the DM leadership team coordinated, informed, and in agreement on the vision, priorities, and challenges facing DM construction, including surfacing and resolving issues and ambiguities needing our attention. The goal of this meeting is to provide information and decisions that help each one of us better direct our own (or our team's) activities.

Discussion Items

Guidelines: Propose items in line with the meeting rationale (see above); include as much information in the agenda notes; summarize, don't go into details while on the call; maximize time available for discussion.

Joint Status Review

Wil O'Mullane

Report on last week's Joint Status Review.



November DMLT F2FJohn Swinbank

Select dates: see this Doodle poll. Best run of three dates as of 2017-09-11 is Monday 13 – Wednesday 15 November, missing Michael Wood-Vasey, Margaret Gelman (will Donald Petravick be available?), Mario Juric, Jeff Kantor.

Select venue: suggestions? Volunteers?

  • Venue will likely depend upon dates; Tucson last week in November, perhaps IPAC or SLAC earlier.
Spring 2018 DM All HandsWil O'Mullane
  • Wil O'Mullane create & distribute Doodle poll for DM All Hands meeting in Spring 2018.  
Access to Stripe 82 data/PDACGregory Dubois-Felsmann

Request received by Gregory Dubois-Felsmann from an (external) scientist. How do we handle this? See this mail to DMLT of 2017-09-01.

  • This person probably stumbled onto a Winter 2013 data release, which has its own data release policy.
  • The older Winter 2013 server may still have all the old data loaded.
DM websiteJohn Swinbank

The DM website at http://dm.lsst.org/ is infrequently updated and may be outdated (in particular, re job openings — as far as I'm aware, none of the current openings within DM have been added to it, while the one job listed at time of writing was obsolete — this will be fixed by the date of this DMLT meeting).

  • Do we actually want this website?
  • Who is responsible for maintaining it?

The answer: this should grow into our community-focused website. As such, the DM-SST (Mario Juric) is responsible for maintaining it (and coordinating its contents with Jonathan Sick if necessary).

Python 2 deprecation timeline

Wil O'Mullane

For v14 release notes we should make a clear statement as to how long Python 2 will be supported.

Agreed within the DMLT that:

  • v15.0 will be the last release to support Python 2; major fixes will be back-ported
  • v14.0 will announce this policy
  • Tim Jenness file an IT-RFC to reflect the DM Python 3 transition plan.  
Butler WGTim Jenness

Status update.

Use cases are solid; started writing requirements.
