+remaining issues:
+
+* operational sequence:
+
+  I need to change the way ippToPsps works at the operational level.
+  currently, the concept is that a 'config' is once and the boundaries
+  / aspect changed to trigger different processing.  this is poor
+  because it leaves no tracking, and it means the current situation
+  change change too easily.  in addition, the rules for triggering dvo
+  ingest are not completely clear, and probably not enforceable from
+  within ippToPsps
+
+  alternatively, I'd like to have the following sequence:
+
+  * init batch should not require a config -- it simply passes along
+    the statically defined tables from tables.IN.vot.  it should be
+    required first, and perhaps depends on the associated dvo database
+    (eg, for skytable?).
+
+  * queue config (probably to include P2,ST,OB batches in general
+    operations) -- should only be done for a region when the items for
+    that region are done.
+
+  * trigger dvo ingest for detections (and image / skytable?)
+    (allow for rerunning ingest operations which failed)
+
+  * run loader once to bundle the batches for the pending items
+    - do not load dvo tables here
+  
+* modify object ingest to happen at same times as the detections
+
+* seems to be some odd behavior -- failure to ingest, duplicate keys?

 This simple modification speeds up the processing of the smfs by a
