Sprint Status
ome-pfelts, Big images (Chris)
assumed everything had generated but not based on what Scott said.
- Scott: looking under his account, there are still 5-6 pyramids waiting to be generated.
- Web UI changes are on that system, full viewer, group dropdown.
- Scott: Insight seems okay functionally, noticed freezes on unrendered; will contact Jean-Marie
Chgrp (Josh)
- hard to understand stuff thats hard to fix. Give time to look at it and give feedback, maybe not for 4.4 but we need a direction.
- Should be okay so far, carlos and J-M have solutions. How do we manage the branches? merge in chgrp branch so that carlos and J-M can collaborate. rebase and tidy up and then propose for merging.
- Important!! - look at J-Ms work and decide if that is the UI experience we want. If done in insight and then submit a script, we need some multi group in python, also in to BlitzGateway as the scripting is done in python.
- Note: J-M away on paternity leave soon.
- Josh: J-Ms work is done on using many sessions, look at omero.group / omero.share
- Chris: more dangerous having many sessions.
- Josh: omero.group might have unknown issues.
- Chris: worried about a number of omero.client objects in client (resource leaks, etc)
-
Scott: can we ask power user outside of Dundee?
- feedback from carlos re: JCB/ASCB
- Chris: Harvard Medical School (Jay) screening workflow, publication worklow. Share and annotate data then move it and expose it publically.
- Chris/Scott: Similar to Monash, will need to dictate workflows.
- Some sites want group-write along with group-projects, and they will not see us as supporting their workflows.
- Supported workflows (for now): data imported to wrong group and need to move to another group (local/public) for others to see it.
- Workaround for group-write: sign in with the same user credentials.
