-
Total bugs: 106 (8 blocker, 9 critical, 32 major, 57 minor)
- Jean-Marie: leave it for now, Josh and Melissa here next week so main focus will be the model. Working on Josh’s branch code-gen before going away. Some db upgrade and change in code, some harder to find than others, query in strings trying to find them.
- Andrew: a ticket for review
- Jean-Marie: some in python script, old code, difficult to track
Sprint Tickets/bugs
- Jean-Marie: Code freeze at end of next sprint, depends on XSD-fu stuff.
- Chris: 1 sprint behind, will need an additional one
- Will: Other stuff to handle as well
- Jean-Marie: End of next sprint aim to be all in to prevent slipping. 7th May final deadline goal
- Scott: Additional things for the model?
- Jean-Marie: Decided on model changes for mapping model+db, all defined, we have manual input required on code generation. Will cause blockup, requires testing and database upgrades.
- Scott: File formats have to go back and test them all
- Jean-Marie: covered model with mock object before, will have to be done again
- Jean-Marie: chmod is a bloacker for feedback as well.
Minigroup Updates (points for Sprint page)
- HIC

- Emma: Full viewer?
- Chris: Know what is wrong, wont push until it’s fixed
-
Ola: Merging outstanding branches (fun!)
-
Insight
- Jean-Marie: 2 outstanding branches, testing, may be Will, something more technical.
- Jean-Marie: linking to other client software, adding support for Windows as well as Mac, Ian Munro, Matlab/FLIM
- Jean-Marie: chmod and changing stuff when group change, will discuss with Josh on his return.

- Emma/Jean-Marie/Will: Yes 4.4.1
- Colin: Cherry picked some commits needs review with Jean-Marie

Scott: Push for Paris for docs and get feedback, between testing. Get feedback in Paris
- Working with current version of Insight
- Only effected by group changing, too complicated to cover

-
Scott: Gave them (all lectures in life sciences) David Coates, Dean of teaching, the OME-hype, Paul Felts gave a demo
- Good news, they liked it, but means more work
- They want to invest and buy in the right way, which means them having discussions around resourcing for allocation
