     • 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 ...

       • Ola: did the bugs from Norwich get added to the list?

         • Will: if you go through all testing scenario now...
           • then we need to go through them all again days before release

         • Chris: Don't need spreadsheet, should keep using stories/tasks

3. User Meeting discussions (45 mins)

   1. OMERO in Action Feedback
   2. 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

4. OME User Meeting - Paris program planing (15:32)

     • Brian: Passport is with the government, likely can't go
     • Andrew: Will book next week after JMB returns
     • Chris: Some talk of making this a 3 day trip (around for an extra day informally)
     • 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
     • Chris: Big question is do we have more/fewer talks? Was it good last year?
     • Chris: What training do we want to cover (some of Jerome's stuff?)
     • Chris: Perhaps just have discussion time in the afternoon of second day
