• schedule workshop - victor to meet with kevin and jeff
  
  • 2022 Nov - Construction/Commissioning Schedule Workshop
  • WO: Frossie is on vacation, Wil and Yusra will cover. Will mostly be able how much and what  work happen over the glass.
• EPO closeout taking shape.  Nov 30 - Dec 1.
  • K-T: The LCR for their ICD will need to be finished by then?
  • WO: That's the idea, but won't be a showstopper if its not done. 
  • K-T: Worried that if they talk about Galaxy Zoo PIs. We don't necessary will want to give them special access to USDF.
  • WO: There are some services that'll be hard to hand away from the USDF
• AMCR- January. Need to triage plan for likely participants today so room block can be finalized with AURA. AMCR is Jan 11 - 13. One day overlap with AAS and in nearby Seattle hotel.
  • WO: Last time they didn't ask for a DM update, and I suspect they will focus on commissioning again. Will react to this when we get a little bit closer.

LCR https://project.lsst.org/groups/ccb/node/5256#comment-8200   ok now ?

• TJ: They fixed the requirement that they'd lead development as opposed to delivering something. and they removed parquet as an actual requirement. 
• WO: They're turning around the changes quickly. If it is done by next Wed, that would be good because we CCB could put a positive vote on it. 

As actioned DMTN-223 was put in front of PST and they were asked for comments.

• Z asked about bringing own credits - said we assumed yes but have not tested
  • a few think that is  not fair others think it frees resources for the rest. 
  • FE: On my to do list is a proof of concept with heterogenous billing. 
  • FE: I am not creating the inequity in the world. It's important to keep people in our ecosystem. 
• They asked what is the cutover from RSP to batch
  • I said we will have to see - it may be that processing 5 or 50 images is ok on RSP but 100 or 500 ? Not obvious we can put a hard line on it but perhaps some  guidline.
  • Cutoff is roughly what can be done in < a week. 
• Expect more comments

2022 Nov - Construction/Commissioning Schedule Workshop

As well as FAFF ... from KT:

Other things that are not milestones or even explicit requirements but may become blockers for SITCOM:

• Selected LFA dataset ingestion into Butler
• ObsCore/Consolidated Database

• TJ: ObsCore is being tested at SLAC now. can move it to /repo/embargo now if we want. I didn't think people were going to ObsCore from the summit...
• K-T: Summit Postgres is coming soon. pgsphere being added.
• TJ: aslo need portal interface on top of it. 
• WO: I thought we were replicating whatever is in the summit DB at the USDF. 
• kT I told Patrick that its his responsibility to figure out how to get the ingestion to occur of course the middleware people can help out but its not our responsibility to provide ingestion of random data. 
• FE: Gregory is going an analysis of the FAFF report, and thats the extent of my involvement.

On the other side, presumably we won't ever realistically reach a point where we're twiddling our thumbs waiting for real data to show up?  (But there are low-priority things we can drop when it does?)
