• czar Wed and Thurs. No data (bad weather), however there were problems registering images. Also tried to kick registration/burntool on Monday, unsuccessfully.
• relphot investigations -- Why can't we relphot ThreePi.283? I tried building different minidvodbs from those cam_ids, and I have not found any useful clues.
  • binary sort (keep chopping the number of cam_ids in half until you find which cam_id is corrupted) - this didn't work. On the chop from 81->40, I created 2 dvodbs that can have relphot run on them successfully.
  • taking one of those, and adding in the missing cam_ids one at a time, and running relphot on it inbetween, didn't work - I added in all the cam_ids and it was fine.
  • running relphot on 284- it ran fine.
  • roy also tried to investigate, also unsuccessfully.
• fringe investigations
  • there was no signal on my good and bad examples (!),so it was fitting things pretty randomly. I found a fringe with a good amount of signal, and I can see that it still has a number of bad points in it. I think the bad points are messing up the fit, I'm investigating further.
• found what is taking up diskspace on ipp004 and started cleaning it up - nearly 2TB of nebulous! There are other offenders too, but that one is by far the largest and easiest to take care of.

• Finished implementation and testing of muggle postage stamps that I started last week. Integrated the code and deployed to the production system.
• Kept watch on the STS data processing, keeping it flowing.
• Wrote a program to facilitate queuing data to be reprocessed to make a reference stack. Used it to queue for MD05.
