Notes

AdminWil O'Mullane
  •  Wil O'Mullane — Distribute e-mail address for contacting admins.  
Project updates
  • Was going to be about shutdown but now we are ok for another 3 weeks. 
  • Still contingency is very tight. Need to examine budgets carefully. Will get tighter as we get to the end of the project.
    • Worth emphasizing that “we are not in trouble” — we still have adequate contingency, we just need to make sure we are appropriately frugal.
  • Estimate to Complete has been refreshed every six months for the last couple of years. Moving forward, this will be every month.
  • New news digest coming out soon.
  • AIV/Commissioning workshop week of Feb 25th in Tucson. Issue based specific time with selected periods; Chuck pushing for specific decisions and plans.
  • ESNET - how do we pay for it.. this an up front cost which will reduce ops costs. 
Risk ManagementWil O'Mullane

Now that risks are in Jira, I have assigned some risks to some people. You should:

  • Asses the risk status at least every 2 months (i.e. cost or probability change ?)
    • Please notify Wil O'Mullane when you make changes, so he can discuss them with the Risk Review Board.
  • Specifically look at the trigger date and see if it is sensible.
  • The risk meeting is tomorrow - DM is up - we will be quized on residual risk exposure.
  • Ask if you are unsure - I would like to make DMLT but especially T/CAMs aware of the risk process and part of it.
Next DMLT F2FJohn Swinbank
  • Is four weeks away.
  • And will be remote.
  • Check on the status of the agenda.
  • Discuss the working hours of this meeting: 09:00 to 14:30 Pacific was suggested on Slack. Are we happy with that?
    • Yes.
  •  All DMLT — provide suggestions for 2019 DM “swag”.  
DM-CCBWil O'Mullane
  • The reconstituted DM-CCB met for the first time on 2019-01-15.
  • We discussed the goals and responsibilities of the DM-CCB; these are summarised on Confluence and in LDM-294 (see
    Jira
    serverJIRA
    columnskey,summary,type,created,updated,due,assignee,reporter,priority,status,resolution
    serverId9da94fb6-5771-303d-a785-1b6c5ab0f2d2
    keyRFC-561
    ).
  • We expect the DM-CCB to be proactive in engaging with the RFC process.
Middleware demoFritz Mueller
  • End-of-January middleware demo coming up shortly... Fritz Mueller will enlighten us as to the details.
  • Demo will be Friday of this week at 12:30 Pacific.
Science Platform managementWil O'Mullane
  • A coordination and responsibility issue with LSP was raised from various quarters.
  • Frossie has been asked to CAM the LSP
  • LDM-294 needs an update to cover that (though now I realize we did not update for Butler/Supertask .. which was  to be shorter term )
  • Note that there will be a regular “Science Platform Standup” following the Monday DMLT call.
  •  Wil O'Mullane — Update LDM-294 to reflect Science Platform and Butler/SuperTask management.  
Jira issue prioritiesWil O'Mullane
  • To date, we document no semantics associated with the Jira issue priorities (“blocker”, “critical”, etc).
    • Various folks have used them to indicate things they think are particularly important and/or annoying, but in no organized way.
  • Should we? Is this related to how we should relate to the Commissioning Team or other activities on the mountain?
  • NB do not confuse the “blocker” issue priority with the “blocking” relationship between issues!
  •  All DMLT — Provide Wil O'Mullane with opinions on issue priorities.  
QAWGWil O'Mullane
  • DMTN-085 is out and on the agenda for our F2F .. many actions are implied come prepared.
  •  John Swinbank — Make sure QAWG discussion at DMLT F2F has enough time and is at an appropriate level of granularity to be actionable.
