  3. Review

    • Big images (Chris)
      • multi-threading of tiles
      • background creation of pyramids (ticketed)
      • omero.fs-lite code commited (ticketed)
      • creation of new resolution levels (no progress)
        • Jean-Marie: Need to be broken down
  4. Joining the OME team: Simon's presentation (45 mins)

    • Group is perhaps at a critical mass where adding a few new users will make it difficult to know what's going on
    • Process: not exactly XP, etc. Having some kind of overview of how things work would be useful.
      • Can figure it out by watching, but possibly could get people up to speed faster
    • If it's worth it, then set up a true OSX app.
    • Spotty documentation (e.g. Linux environment variables)
    • developer tutorials would be good (similar to Java Tutorials perhaps)
    • scripting
      • API should typically be everything
      • don't know what I can't do (cF. Insight widgets)
    • Jean-Marie: for many people how the objects are linked is critical
    • How to move forward
      • Will sees what to add to SiteMap from Simon's points
      • Start with scripting (angle of attack is important)
      • Need to figure out Mac OSX deploy (Ice 3.3/3.4)
  5. HIC Jobs - Closing date past, processing applications

    • Andrew has hard-copies.
  6. Any other business (<5 mins)

    • Jean-Marie: Anyone blocked with tickets?
      • Chris: need Colin/Chris/Josh talks
    • Scott: send email to scientists for middle of May?
      • Jean-Marie: they will forget about it, but it's ok to send it.

Action Items

  • Everyone: Go through tickets. Be realistic for end of this sprint on Thursday
  • Will: Respond to Perrine about his OME-XML question on [ome-users]
