Serge Chastel

• Czar on Monday
• Recovered 10 otas that were "lost"
• Tidied up ipp001 backup for June backup files
• Started installation of ippc62 and ippc63 as nebulous replicants.
• Played with swappiness on ippc63, ippc11, ipp009, ipp005, ipp006.

Heather Flewelling

• sciency stuff for jt and for kc
  • crash course in pstamp from bill

• helped roy with ipp/psphot issues

• testing of gene dvo changes
  • check 1: skytable.fits is not overlapping (could be a clue for why it is broken?)
  • building a dvo with new features (testing this still)
    • note to self, make sure .ptolemyrc AND ptolemy.rc both have PS1_V4 or else it doesn't work.

• building Q2 (again)
  • the first two iterations failed at the same minidvodb, so it is now excluded (pending investigations)
    • nothing obvious in number of stars in camRun
    • nothing obvious in size of dvodb
    • running dvoverify - no problems spotted
    • checking num of stuff in Images.dat - nothing suspicous.
    • checked czarlogs - suspicious - that day of repeated nebulous problems happened the same day the minidvodb was built - maybe there is something funny...
  • the third one is building.. and.. it crashed on the minidvodb after (so, it crashes on 1696 and 1698)
  • making various test merge dvodbs consisting of 1691.. though 1702 containing 1696 and 1698 - do those still crash? or others?

• ipptopsps
  • few more tweaks to ipptopsps wiki on what Mags/Fluxes we want in objects
  • investigating Peder's questions about stackDetectId and skycells -- so it appears that:
    • skycell is not properly ingested into psps (and this is a known problem)
    • stackDetectId is not unique (again a known problem, and we should fix it)

• skycal
  • first pass at adding skycal to addstar, needs testing

• mac ipp problems
  • cfitsio is broken - need to hack the make file to have -install_name (final_path_to/libcfitsio.dylib) after which it works properly (otool -L agrees)
