    • Notes
      • Chris: Josh & I cleaned obvious things that we are not getting to:
        • Export
        • UI in Insight/Web (SPW extensions, annotation, tagging)
        • Various import requests to standaardize, split/join imports, transational integrity, etc.
        • Model stuff: need to have it rationalized so we know exactly what we're doing.
          • testing, stylesheets, backports, etc.
          • Andrew: transform is mostly done.
          • Chris: are we just telling people to use xsltproc? Need to decide.
      • Remaining: Big Images, UI changes, Insight Importer, stability/bug fixes, API stuff
        • We need to reduce the number of UI changes that we have open
        • Ola wants to try a tree
        • May have to make hard decisions
      • "Pollution" of scope
        • Lots of usability investigations. Need to know which can be finished for 4.3
        • Donald/JM FLIM stuff needs rationalization
      • Plan
        • Add nothing to 4.3 that isn't related to the above 'cleared' list of things
        • All other ticket go to 'unscheduled'
        • Spread remaining stories/tickets into the next two sprints
        • Let's get to zero tickets remaining in each sprint and at 4.3!
          • Let's us see how much we can finish in given periods.
        • Will: anything you will be doing that's not ticketed should be!
        • Brian: let someone know early if you can't do testing (Brian, Scott)
        • Chris: We should check on testing tickets every meeting
          • We don't have testing time currently! Gonna need to keep on top of this

          • See report 9 for a synopsis of what we have currently: 145 person-days here
            • Modelling stuff needs to be rationalized
            • Haven't gone over the tasks at the bottom without stories
              • Many of these are duplicates
              • Some things from 4.2/Ola/Will/Josh that are duplicates
              • Proposal from Josh/Chris: Owners for these tickets rationalize. Fix/assign to stories/sprints.
              • Unowned ones Josh/Chris will look at
      • ticket 3649: Not sure if there will be anymore gateway cahnges
        • Many are assigned to carlos
      • ticket 1970:
        • Jason: do the tickets need to get cleaned or is there 14 tix/7.5 days of work?
        • Donald: many (20-30) of the tickets are work to be done
        • Won't really be able to assign J-M to #4879
        • Those are Donald's tasks
