  5. Glencoe Update

    • Finished 14:28
  6. Minigroup Updates

    • HIC (incl. presentation as a satellite example)

      • J-M: There is a hope for presentation update about HIC
      • Josh: We could possibly do that presentation like a sample presentation for the satellites what would be expected in the future. Structured as an example.
    • Satellite mtg. Preparation.

      • Emma: emails sent today. Will send to the new emails.
      • Want to ask before hand what everyone’s priorities are?
    • Documentation (Will)

      • Continuation what was done with trac site. Main site needs work, too, though

      • General aims: remove stuff out of date, make sure that anything worthwhile can be found.

      • i.e. Logical hierarchy of some sort, with sensible navigation, and place for new pages is clear.

      • Have previously gone through every page and decide if we want to keep it.

      • This time there are a few pages marked as candidate for delete.

      • See ticket 7021 (candidates for delete)

      • Next major tasks are: which pages could be improved, merged together, add Parent (umbrella) with links underneath.

      • Jean-Marie: come with pre-defined buckets and propose it to the group next week.

      • Jason: looking for a major decision on how to take the next step?

      • J-M: we might have a meeting next week to decide about next steps.

      • We could ask authors about cleaning particular pages.

      • J-M: Next summary next week.

      • Jason: Is this content audience directed? Ideally if this would be done before developers meeting, but might not be possible. Shall we ask external or new people about looking what is/isn’t helpful there? Feedback might be very valuable.

      • Emma: think about what information you want to have and start from scratch.

      • Will: There were couple of pages created from scratch

      • Emma: We could come from the top and rebuild it from scratch. Lot of circular links.

        • Emma: If you are a user is not clear where I am/ come from/ to go next.
      • Josh:

        • if we decide to do it do it with appropriate tool.
        • Andrew: We kind of stack with the trac version because of Agilo. Might have sense host the content from the different system (?)
      • Jason: is there anything that we will miss from the deletions? No.

        • Josh: I disagree. If we could find the way of hiding trac pages (turn off), deleting - completely looking those information might not be the best solution.
        • Some of them are only visible through the site index. This is kind of hiding.
        • Andrew: wiki text links needs to be regenerated.
        • NB: Also the issue of renaming pages.
      • Jason: “bins” are done an exposed? No. Currently debating.

        • Timescale?
        • Currently: OMERO (most), BioFormats (5), Model (no pages)
          • We could reorganize it by changing the link to the top page.
          • Jason: going down the hierarchy are those pages organized in groups, etc? Yes
        • J-M: defining templates, policies, etc. for pages to keep them consistence.
      • J-M: we will come up with more feedback next week.

  7. 4.4/sprint 1 planning

    • 4.4.0: cleanup and breaking changes (suggestions?)

      • Josh: general aim is cleaning.
        • closing bugs we couldn’t accomplish in 4.3
        • documentation if possible
        • anything we want to shut off?
    • 1 week cleanup tasks (round table)

      • there are already tickets for cleaning up assigned in current sprint.
      • documentation
      • education: rois in big images
    • Scott will take a few insight/web UI tickets

      • Josh: is everyone clear how to get in there?
        • Scott: my issues are longer terms - in terms of documentations, etc.
      • Ola: need to have build of our branches to have things integrated. Need workflow how to deploy features on server against multi branches (especially when server should present few prototypes/features and couple of developers wants to pull from various branches).
      • Josh: lets do a week of bugs hammering. Please put your current tasks/bugs you are working on this week in the sprint.
      • Sprint ends next Thursday (27/10/11)
      • There will be shorter sprint before Dev meetings.
