(Up to [wiki:IPP_Progress_Reports IPP Progress Reports])

=== Eugene Magnier ===

=== Heather Flewelling === 

 * various amounts of reverting/kicking of various labels when they needed it.
 * queued up SVS test set for mops.
 * burntooled data from 01-01-2010 through about 02-08-2010, version 14 of burntool.
 * gave talk on demo month + how the ifa can access the data at astrocoffee
 * addstar automation checked in, but untested.
 * more magic test with newest version of magic (magictest%20100210% label)
 * made 104 histograms, sliced by survey, band, and survey and band, for various iterations of magic tests. 
 
=== Bill Giebink ===

 * worked with Sturdevant AC technician to try to get PS2 AC working
 * looked more at PS2 dome/AC control code
 * collected, reduced and posted DIMM data
 * operated RoboDIMM Thursday and Friday night

=== Roy Henderson ===

 * some time looking into psLib optimsation: made timings, wrote new read function, played with struct alignment
 * max/min of object IDs now determined by ippToPsps and passed to DXLayer in the batch manifest. Other metedata may follow.
 * made improvements to DXLayer fast-FITS-read function
 * access to PSPS maui cluster and JHU cluster/SVN for DXLayer testing, Started to look at DXLayer code, as I will be testing it this week coming
 * began documentation on the IPP wiki, including an outline of the IPP to PSPS system and outstanding issues

=== Paul Price ===

 * Sent Run 5 MD detections to Dave Monet via publish system
 * Fix ppSub to put FWHM in diff inverse headers
 * Fix psastro to put zpt_obs in statistics file
 * Pattern I/O implemented and tested
 * Fixed pattern row correction list for XY15
 * Fixed SEGVs in pswarp, ppStack
 * Implemented mechanism for destreaking of background-preserved (i.e., no pattern or background subtraction) images
 * Fixed stack target PSF calculation to allow slightly bad PSFs (PAR_7 > 5e-2), though the target PSF itself is constrained to be good (PAR_7 >= 0).
 * Scheduled monthly videocons with UK partners: Wed 8am.
 * Fixed stack photometry: PSF parameters were being allowed to range without bounds
 * Running background-preserved M31 data

=== Bill Sweeney ===
 * moved data store and postage stamp server installation off of ipp049 to ippc17. Verified operation
 * worked with gavin to configure mysql instance on ippc17 correctly
 * made some changes to dsreg to improve error handling
 * fixed some bugs in the ippTools related to distribution
 * added feature to data store to hide filesets without actually deleting them
 * cleaned up old distribution bundles
 * modified addtool to insure that a given camRun's smf file is queued for a given dvodb no more than once
 * set up dvo catdir configuration
 * queued addRun's by hand and monitored construction of DVO db ThreePi. All runs from the first 3 days of demo month have been added. Copied db to rsync server on ipp0222 and announced to ipp-users. It has at least been downloaded to MPIA.
 * started working on optimized update (Allowing update processing on a subset of a run's components. This is probably doable but will probably affect a hundred or so source files.

=== Chris Waters ===

 * Diffraction spike masking: updated diffraction spike mask rules to fix angular shift between old masks and the spikes, and updated the spike length model.
 * Nightly Science automation: expanded to cover more than just MD fields. New config file to define which surveys are processed via the automation code, and to remove values hard coded into the script.
 * Stack-stack diffs: Updated difftool to support stack stack diffs.  There still seem to be a number of bugs to fix.
 * Difference automation: added warp-stack and stack-stack diff modes to the survey.pro pantasks module.
