Notes
Beta3.2
- RenderingEngine issue?
- Announcing packaging on Monday
-
One bug in importer. Needs investigation. Changes to metadata store?
- One file format was not importing. Temporary?
- Josh : applies patches from Glencoe if possible
-
Everything should be done by Monday morning
- Metadata is too late
- Probably leaving the out-of-range issues since it destabilizes
Metadata
- Running extremely late. 2.5 weeks or so. No supported file.
- Binning isn't in. And it's confusing to have just some metadata missing.
-
PlaneInfo is now finally in, but aren't getting linkages.
- Adding call to setDetector..() method should fix it.
- Light source and objective settings as well.
- Having good support for these things is critical for acceptance
- Push hard so that next week we can have the demo ready for ASCB
Data model
- Aberration correction / iris : discuss during last email
- Are there any other changes?
- Any feedback from Kevin and Curtis? Melissa could you ask?
-
Legacy omero things
- Naming issues: "setup", attributes in planeinfo
-
Handling Image/Pixels by making relationship 1-to-1?
- Are there commercial customers who are using the 1-to-many functionality?
- Will have to also add the linkage table between images
- already difficulty between bioformats & importer
Blitz
- #1114 is finished. The patches from Glencoe are involved.
- Service for data chronology coming up for implementing calendars
- Deleting images: files will be unlinked later, but you can force it.
Upcoming
- Delete: working in parallel with the metadata
- Permissions: putting off until after ASCB
- Web cleanup against this coming Wednesday
-
Exporting to excel, embedding issues
- Charts, graphics, etc. in excel
- Just to show what's possible.
- Also some work on the wiki front
- Ongoing discussion about common protocol format
-
Linux as OS demo for ASCB?
- For the server that makes sense.
- The constraint is the version of pynotify
- Jean-Marie is prepairing an agent to show a basic workflow of viewing files
- Colin arriving on Thursday and can discuss.
- Will there be a Linux present?
- Database upgrade scripting probably starts end of next week
- Will discuss batch for delete, etc. at ASCB
