Heather Flewelling

• czar/summitcopy investigator
• ifaps1 liason
  • answered questions for Klaus and Tom
  • transferred a copy of LAP dvodb to ipp022
• investigated psf_major changes between tags (yes, there are changes, yes, the current tag is the correct calc)
• further rsync testing of the big dvodb. It's slow (4-6 hours between minidvodb merges)
• addstar work continuing (for better ways to handle merges of minidvodbs)

Roy Henderson

• PSVO:
  • added sub-menus to XML plugin query files
  • wrote recursive function to parse sub-menus
  • plugin files now online so PSVO clients can update dynamically (defaults to local copy if offline)
  • added more queries
  • released new version

• Loading:
  • usual loading monitoring/czaring
  • processed some of the stragglers from the OLD 3pi processing (some were missing from Gene's backup DVO I had been using)
  • yet more dupes during merge. Worked on a list of batches for Sue to remove.

• ippToPsps development:
  • datastore delete failing. Spent ages tracking it down. My mistake: fixed.
  • working on clients creating their own scratch Dbs using PID as part of name to avoid conflict and ease of client-start-up

• looked into providing plots for Heather to asses load on ipp005 during loading
