• PSPS
  • BIGINTs slipping through as objID and failing at load: fixed
  • Enlisted Gavin to help with wiki permissions thing. Finally fixed
  • Neatened up and committed fitsConverter code for new DXLayer
  • Problems with interconnectivity within MHPCC, i.e. between IPP and PSPS clusters: Gavin to the rescue again.

• IPP
  • Big changes to support new DXLayer work by Conrad: ditched the idea of 'jobs', now publishing 'batches'
  • Now using 'dist_group' from IPP against PSPS init batch data to set surveyID
  • Improved handling of 'init' batch creation in run script
  • Helped Heather confirm that the merged DVO Dbs looked ok by running them through ippToPsps
  • Looked into, and fixed, problems with exposure times: a) lack of precision, b) was not using mid-exposure time for detections

Paul Price

• Fixed SEGV in normalisation of darks: chips weren't being mosaicked due to recent change.
• Completed rework of ppMops to generate SMF-like format
• Optimised ppStack for stacks of many images: create single target PSF image for all inputs to share
• Coded ppBackground to restore background of an image, given pattern and background model
