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

=== Eugene Magnier ===

=== Serge Chastel ===
* Adapted ippMonitor framework for plotting/image display
   * Details can be seen at the end of ippMonitor/def/README
   * Need to fix minor bug: 'unlink(tmp files) deletes data and image files before
     display in php script'
     => unlink tmp files removed from php scripts
     => Dirty temporary solution: clean from 'Admin and debug' menu
   * Query columns names from some db tables
* Roy's shadow for czar activities

=== Heather Flewelling === 
 * liason duties
   * answered Harvard/LCOGT questions
   * answered IFA questions / transferred dvo dbs etc
 * ippMonitor - more bug fixes (checked in now)
 * detrend work
   * reverts - (ippTools and ippTasks) detrends now revert in pantasks, similar to the other stages. dettool has -revertstuff -all-run to revert any failures in state 'run'
   * monitoring of detrend pantasks
 * addstar
   * monitoring of merge (it finally finished)
   * emailed Bill how to restart addstar - I should put this on the wiki   
   
=== Roy Henderson ===

 * PSPS/IPP
  * attempts to load batches on sandbox with new DXLayer with Conrad. Various (still unresolved) issues...
  * some schema changes
  * now saving ippToPsps metadata in XML format (had been plain-text)
  * removed dependence on smf column numbers to protect against future smf format changes
  * now logging 'total detections' and storing in ippToPsps Db for auditing/debugging
  * work on undefined detection fields:
   * numPhotoRef in !ImageMeta: setting to same as numAstroRef, which is true for now at least
   * numPhotoRef in !FrameMeta: setting to sum of numPhotoRef over all chips
   * detectorID: changed to string in PSPS schema, using 'DETECTOR' from IPP smf

 * IPP
  * Czar on Friday:
   * Outlined Czar duties to Serge
   * added 'revert' buttons to Czartool

=== Paul Price ===

 * Processing Czar
  * Reverting failures due to filesystem glitches
  * Fixed pmSourceMatch (wasn't incrementing size for disjoint regions) and backported to fix Gene's MD04 stacks
  * ipp012 woes
 * Background restoration pipeline
  * Merged branch into trunk
  * Ran single M31 image to work out bugs
 * Added concept CHIP.TEMPERATURE to be set to the Camera's new-and-improved temperature header keyword
 * Stacks:
  * Discovered that STS stack photometry has more scatter than expected or desired
  * PSF photometry has more scatter than aperture, apparently because the PSF model isn't good
  * Found astrometric differences about 1 pix (0.2 arcsec) p-p in the warps
  * Unconvolved photometry seems to be better than convolved

=== Bill Sweeney ===
 * vacation 2 days
 * 2 days as processing czar
 * helped team queue data for cleanup and monitored it's progress.
 * debugged update failures
   * diff updates were occasionally failing. Paul suggested some changes to inputs in this mode that fixed the problem
   * For some very large requests cleanup is getting queued between the time that a postage stamp job is queued. This causes the jobs to fail
   * updates stall if the previous magicDSRun cleanup did not succeed.
