Matters arising

Website: nothings happened/turned up yet. Try to contact Bjones

- Brian: 1967 moved to story
- Chris: change var/log page
- @Need to add SSL data to the troubleshooting page
-
Permissions testing
- Chris: readonly/readlink was a suprise
- Lead to the brokenness
- Testing suite is not catching things
- Need to get to the point where we don't have to click
-
Chris: not efficient if only Josh writing them
- Have written 40-50 tests
- Doesn't cover annotations, etc.
- @Throw several people at writing tests
- Tomorrow discuss a testing strategy, 10AM
- (May also clean up the annotation.description logic and the single rating)

- Web client basket: still need to explore
-
Website: nothings happened/turned up yet. Try to contact Bjones
Export of data & permissions
-
Jean-Marie: Can I export an image in read-only group?
- Chris: take 5 minutes to write a client
- Jean-Marie: deeper in concept of image ownership
- Need to put aside time to discuss it
- Jason: asymptotic approach to perfection in permissions here
- some things we can deal with; and some you have to take responsibility for
- probably asked to add another permissions for "Download"
-
Chris: what we do or don't expose in the client v. the API
- No line plots, analysis, etc.
- An option would be to have a web-frontend (JCB/publishing)
-
Jean-Marie: Can I export an image in read-only group?
FS
- Pretty close to having the metadata infrastructure in place for insight display
- Missing: capabilities of BF/FS to read from file, metadata-only import, bf-initialize
- start initially with a BF.setId() on each call (unoptimized)
-
Colin: 3 tickets underway
- Need to discuss if any specific data is missing
- Josh: fs-or-bust
- Colin: currently limited to flat directory structures
- Jean-Marie: performance (esp. in ImportCandidate) is key
WebAdmin
- Creation of groups, etc. has been updated
- Feel free to test and let Ola know.
- "system" group is on the list. Unsure.
- Refreshed on mage
QA/forums
- Chris/Melissa keeping up with their BF fixes and adding tickets accordingly
- Patch build for bf 4.1?
-
Will: Leica reader is filling things improperly (attenuation v. transmissivity)
- Jean-Marie: setup time with Melissa?
- Andrew: This is on ticket for light source
- Jean-Marie: the enumerations for things like light sources are all full (not abbreviated) but users need a way see abbreviations as well
- @Andrew writes up as a ticket
- @Will discusses with Melissa
- How do we handle corrections to existing imports? (update db? silent? other suggestions?)
- Chris is testing the jabber based notifications for the forums. Will see how it goes.
Action Items
- Chris: Get BJones' jabber information to Andrew
- Andrew: need to add SSL data to the troubleshooting page (assign as needed?)
- Everyone: need to throw several people at writing better permissions tests
- Everyone: meet tomorrow 10AM (Friday) to discuss testing strategy
- Jason: catch up with Andrew about website later today
- Jean-Marie: Create a story/wiki page for image ownership, sharing, & permissions
- Everyone: Please continue to look at web-client basket for feedback
- Will: Talk to Melissa and see if the attenuation problem can be fixed (also add a ticket)
- Andrew: Create an over arching story ticket for enumerations and custom user needs
