Notes
Accepting minutes from last meeting -- ACCEPTED
Matters Arising (<10 mins)
-
Team: Reconcile merges with burndown next TUESDDAY - WORKING ON IT
- PixelBuffer branch should be merged today
- Importer and others coming soon
- Chris to talk to Ola about integrating into web.
-
Jean-Marie: create all sprints til release - PENDING
- Josh: Just have someone else do it (Chris will)
-
Brian/Scott: finalize the testing scenarios - FRIDAY. Reassign tasks based on what's done now
-
Brian: gone through them and added things that are missing
- Good deal of new content.
- Should go over the scenarios when we are actually testing.
-
Chris: other stated intention was that tested scenarios didn't have things covered that were going to change rapidly.
- Brian: don't know what the complete list; need to have a discussion
- Chris: that was the point of going over it
- Scott: put the ones that are solid enough up on ...
- Scott: Need to do some webclient stuff
-
Ola: did the bugs from Norwich get added to the list?
- Scott: tried to scan it.
-
Will: if you go through all testing scenario now...
- then we need to go through them all again days before release
-
Brian: if Scott has a solid short-list, then we should distribute that
- Will: don't think there's anything that can be ruled out later
-
Josh: How do we set this up? Tickets for the tasks? Spreadsheet?
- Chris: Don't need spreadsheet, should keep using stories/tasks
-
Andrew: anyone touching the TestingScenarios should not modify numbering
- Chris: in fact, no one should be touching TestingScenarios without talking to Scott
-
Will: There's a disparity in how much is in each test
- Split up by browser type
- Some are also very large (lots of groups, etc.)
-
Andrew: a ticket per file format?
- Could become insane
- Chris: we could just do "Bob's formats" if we split them up evenly
-
Brian: gone through them and added things that are missing
- Melissa: define new formats need to be tested (DONE)
- Brian: prepare test_images_good with Melissa's list (DONE by Melissa)

Jason: Try to delete group member data from 4.2.2 insight - DONE

Notes
-
JIC: very interested in ontologies and tagging, including forced tagging on import
- test center that we can build a relationship with
-
public access to data
- one site already had a sharing system
- we will need to be in touch with them if they want to use OMERO
-
scripting
- Chris: to do many things (batching, etc) you're almost forced to the command-line
- Will: would be easy to provide "edit script" from the web
- But once the script is beyond a few lines of code
-
data duplication
- Ola: people were asking about importing from the web
- compressing files that aren't being used.
-
Auto Update:
- Chris: Don't think we can avoid this in the future, will have to tackle next version
- Ola: Talking Client updates here, no server.
-
Documentation:
- Where is CPP Docs? Chris: Just examples right now
-
Jerome's Documentation:
- Chris: Would be good to have this as the 'omero course' on the front page of the website
- But has to be maintained. Very time consuming.
-
Page similar to success stories about what people are working on!
- People were also offering scripts
- Andrew: Links off success stories? It's (often) more technical than that.
- Andrew: Attach files to the forum? Could we have a forum section for this?
- Chris: Good example at phpbb's forums for this in 'plugins' section
- Andrew: can we add moderation of a particular topic? Don't know.
-
Miax
- Standing buffet: short discussion...
- Some people asked about running a similar event
-
JIC: very interested in ontologies and tagging, including forced tagging on import

-
Andrew: Problem with last years layout: a bit cluttered first day
- Second day issues with power/wifi
- Andrew: Maybe posing questions to people to cover in their talks might be nice
- Chris: Have to wait for Jason to see who is talking
