2007-09-14 Omero Review Meeting

Attending: Brian, Catriona, Jason, Jean-Marie, Josh, Melissa, Will

  • Movies
    • to be reviewd
  • Beta-2.2 Tix
  • Beta3 Tix
  • Any other priority issues


Notes

  • Welcome trust status approved! Yeah!!
  • We've decided to allow non-quantitative data to be added to the store (jpg, gif, etc).
  • Had a long discussion about state messages and how to best handle this issue. Decided that is should be discussed at full with the dev team. We should do some exploratory code using category groups to get a better idea of how to do this "right".


Action Items

  • Everyone please review the movies from Ola. Get from: http://users.openmicroscopy.org.uk/~ola/movies/
  • Still need update from Donald about his tickets (he's away today)
  • Update Cat's team with Valewalker is updated.
  • Melissa/Brian check metadata store for large files. (Maybe a OMEROMetadata problem?)

Notes II


  • general
    • hi melissa
    • Jason hasn't gone through movies yet.
      • Was getting us more money
      • OMERO was a big part of that application (tools to share, annotate, etc.)
      • @Brian adds link to notes for Movies. Please review them.
      • Loci should feel more than free to take a gander and make suggestions

  • beta2.2 tix
    • open on omero
      • #657 : possibly waiting on a DB update in Beta3
      • #670 : investigation for Chris and Brian
        • Channels not always on screen properly
        • TIFF possibly not viewable (bug around for a while; detected in importer)
      • Channel options, Jason?
        • 3 options: importing dv file w/ pixel size metadata that we recognize
        • dialog box: with "override metadata" checkbox
        • Jason: "kinda don't like that". E.g. Wavelength set to 0 could be bad if used.
        • Brian: Is data in files the higher authority? Or do we allow tweaking?
        • Issue for offline.
        • Loci's policy?
          • Discouraged
          • @Melissa asks for advice/suggestions from the rest of the team
        • Then also need to edit in insight. Ripple effects.
        • Policies from Homburg or Pasteur (Does the institute or PI get to decide?)
          • @Cat writes institutes
      • scary (and wonderful) how many formats we're getting :)

    • open on shoola
      • Most of Jean-Marie's tickets are already done.
      • donald absent, said offline, most things should be doable
      • @Jean-Marie talks to Chris about stale thumbnails

    • summary: all the big things are done, and everything else should be doable in the next couple of weeks. Oct. 1 code freeze.

  • misc
    • Because of JBoss change, we are going to be forced to push users to a new server (not valewalker) and import new data.
      • @Cat warns everyone and identifies key users.
      • significant bug on valewalker anywhere, shouldn't be too long to upgrade anywhere (couple of weeks)
      • Please contact Cat when it's ready.

  • exiting cat

  • beta 3
    • open on omero
      • what do we want to get done?
        • josh: configuration, delete, sessions, attributes (for tagging), oracle(?)
        • No ola or chris
        • importer: large file support. info sent to loci.
          • Melissa: having no issue opening up whole file
          • Jason: Does it make sense that we do the reverse testing and do things their way?
          • Profiling: during population of metadata, only thing basically stops
          • Next step: trying more on both sides
        • Melissa should have everything on the bio-formats page supported within couple of weeks
          • (Josh is going to try to type that list here)

  • email from aleksandra
    • beta2.2: rendering settings done, being used by j-m.
      • j-m still some methods to be implemented
      • control to check that the pixel type is the same (more than just checking num. of wavelength)
      • also fix the remoting jars issue
    • beta3 mostly done.
      • #782 expire date for password (need to discuss)
      • #796 help guide for admin

  • state during import
    • statistics during import
    • dummy dataset in the old system
    • did I archive or not?
    • brian: hold off on implementing something
    • jean-marie: need to wait to not implement it twice
    • jason: has to be efficient and effective from a server/dev p.o.v.
    • T.B.D. (is this for post-3 release?)
    • Josh: trying to stretch this as far as possible (need server dev interaction cycles)
