     26Lots of progress, and a major setback, getting stacks into PSPS this week. Still lots to do before Boston.
     27
     28 * Finished remaining development work for stack batches:
     29  * questions about how to populate PSPS flux columns: Jim and Gene settled on a solution and I implemented it in code
     30  * numerous schema changes
     31  * work on GPC1 queries to list available stacks, get contributing OTAs for each
     32  * new temp Db table to store meta data from DVO, eg flags, photcode etc
     33  * redesigned ippToPsps database to keep track of batch types, processing, whether they are loaded or merged etc
     34  * fixed issue of NaNs in fits headers not writing to database
     35  * changes to lots of SQL due to Heather's changes in gpc1 addRun table
     36  * now performing clean-up in Db before export to FITS, i.e. removing NULL objIDs, NULL fluxes etc
     37
     38 * Successfully tested loading and merging of new stack batches. Problems encountered:
     39  * missing tables: SkinnyObject, ObjectCalColor in stack batches. Added these to code.
     40  * NULLs sneaking in to new 'updated' column in Object table: we had forgotten to add a default. Changed schema
     41  * crazy -999 "NULL"s don't fit in byte field and so broke load. Fixed
     42  * merge stage was expecting all contributing images for the stack to be loaded already. Sue fixed this.
     43
     44 * DVO speed issue
     45  * encountered a serious DVO speed issue with the new MD04 database. Way too slow for us to load enough before Boston
     46  * formed plan to pull everything we need into a MySQL database for quicker, easier access
     47  * started work coding this
     48
     49* the solution to the above DVO problem means my new code needs to produce detections, so:
     50 * lots of work filling in the last missing fields
     51 * porting GPC1 access methods in Jython code
     52 * laboriously comparing the output with that of the old code to verify nothing has been lost along the way
