Minutes
Attendance: Patrick Stuart Warren Scott Charles Ed Kipp Kent Duncan Shourov Felippo Brian Adam Keith Peter Greg Ben Announcements: Stuart asked Benoit for three different things: FrContrib materials will be accepted by Benoit. Patches. Kipp will act as LSC liaison to get the configure stuff into FrameL CVS. Patrick will e-mail Benoit about this and put Kipp in contact. Benoit has agreed to help fix compression bug with Ed for S6. MatApps: Keith reported everything is in CVS, but he has not done any pruning. Keith thinks that people may want to have a distro of MatApps and other tools inside of the MatApps. Patrick said he would like to understand whether we can bring up a plan for releasing MatApps toolboxes. Keith thinks that we might be able to have a release of certain pieces of software. Shourov has never seen it as a single entity. He thinks there is no way that it can be distributed as a single entity. Patrick said that he would like to see some releases to establish the releases so that it can be used by others in the LSC. Shourov asked if there could be help for packaging in rpms and/or debs; Patrick said UWM is willing to provide this. Keith asked if the idea is to kick start packaging utilities and other other tools in MatApps. Shourov wanted people to consider if this is worthwhile. Kipp pointed out that the review process leads to work downstream that we should make easier by putting some work on upstream. Stuart pointed out that having a canonical release of tools for use by new people can do things easily. DMT: no report Glue: Duncan got an e-mail from one of Gaby's students about finding the data quality flags associated with a given time. Patrick asked Duncant to submit a bug report on this and we'll follow up with Igor. Kipp explained that ther eis already a feature request for this. Shourov will add a feature request for some improved dump of the segment database. Needs to be done to maintain backwards compatability. LAL/LALApps: no report LDAS: no report. LDG Client/Server: Still working on the next release, but nothing to report at the moment. LDR: There are issues and bugs that are being handled Shourov asked about the LIGO data to Virgo transfer problem. LIGOTools: No comments on the proposal for FrContrib. It was accepted by default; Peter will send Benoit a pointer to the code. Peter will send an e-mail asking for code updates. Metaio: no report Onasys: no report OSG-LIGO: Duncan asked about the bug fix he sent to Britta; she said. AOB: Warren asked to get a report on the NR data format on a future agenda.
