2008-05-30 Omero Review Meeting
Attending: Andrew, Chris, Colin, Donald, Jean-Marie, Josh, Melissa, Ola, Will
No agenda. Getting ready for release
Notes
- JeanMarie/Insight
- Trying to finish things up. Lots of testing help from Chris and Will.
- Business logic for tags is client side. Only focusing on images, which will be a bit limit.
- Build tonight. Feedback is much appreciated.
- Q: Refresh issues all addressed? Removing issues from Dataset didn't update the tree.
- Still some synchronizations that aren't in place. Blindly refreshing doesn't work when you have 15,000 images. Have to be a bit smarter.
- Added namespace to rating annotation
- Q: Searching work-in-progress? (Will)
- Some of the queries are not natural to do.
- Won't be ideal because business logic is client-side. Tricky for usability.
- Tag search doesn't seem to work
- Issue with the search service.
- Server/ Chris & a silent Josh
- Pretty solid. Resolved thumbnail synch and caching issues, plus ways for rendering settings to be reset in blocks.
- All of fixes in place for the deadlock. Mage running solid for +week.
- Possibly still massing many, many, many images.
- Packing up on Mondaz
- Changes in OmeroShell, testing on as many platforms as possible. Centos4 and Mac are fine. Centos5 and Ubuntu need work.
- Documentation front for blitz server (Donald). So much has changed since March/April, much will need to be re-written.
- Vanilla install is straight-forward, but large number of odd problems. (too many connections)
- Need a week or so to get things ironed out. What's the base number of connections, etc?
- Michael
- Deleted everything. Postgres, Omero, OME-Perl. Didn't work.
- Postgres runs fine. But getting too many connections.
- Donald will post some tickets. A lot has been deleted.
- Need to track down what happened if possible. Don't want this to happen in the wild.
- Donald talks to Michael, Chris can shell in. Josh tries to reconfigure c3p0.
- Brian/Importer
- OME-XML mostly done. A couple of functions are missing. Image linking on Monday
- New login is ready.
- Update script, session script are all done.
- Will/Editor
- No more large changes. Small fixes.
- Nothing major.
- Movie is available.
- Andrew / Website
- Q: Still helpful for us to check the pages?
- Largely the site should be there by the end of the day.
- Missing links to sample OME-XML and OME-TIFF files
- Paula is providing screenshots of OME server
- Please send email if you are going to re-arrange pages.
- Plone pages update themselves automatically, but not the html OME pages.
- Haven't updated all the name/abbreviations since it may require patching plone.
- Q: Still helpful for us to check the pages?
- HCS format
- Jean-Marie is planning on getting started once Beta3 is out.
- Status from Melissa & Brian?
- Hasn't been integrated with importer
- Flex is currentlz the only format. INCELL 1000 is coming. And then of course more after that.
- Donald / Beta3
- Only releasing matlab interfaces
- Seems to do everything it should do: data, metadata, rendering, etc.
- Writing documentation. Hoping to be done today. Probably next week.
- Need to do some testing with Michael.
- Moving from old workflow (screening->matlab on raw files) to working with OMERO
- Ola
- Updated login module to support LDAP plugin
- Recording movie. @Let Ola know who's finished with the movie so she can start generating.
- Colin / OmeroFS
- Since last week, the interface has been updated.
- Added methods for directory listings, stat, etc.
- Looking at py-inotify for Linux version. Need fix for glibc
- Now opening files, and therefore adding exception handling.
- Chris: possibly an instance on mage and let people play with the API
- Colin in Scotland from next Wed. to the Wed. after that.
- @Colin possibly writes up something for the new website.
