Minutes for the terameeting of December 17th 2007

Present: Yannick, Mathias S. (videoconf.), Mireille, Mathias M., Henry Joy, Emmanuel, Gregory, Fred.

Emmanuel's summary document

MEGACAM operations

-  Yannick expects feedback from V. Lebrun and M. Pierre about the integrity of the CFHTLS data at CADC.
-  Yannick mentions that there are two fields in W1 with strange coordinates. Mathias will check.
-  Henry suggests using Topcat or IDL to create fancy photometric plots. Emmanuel will do his best to add photometric check plots in SCAMP, but he is faced with problems of configuration.

WIRCAM operations

-  Henry Joy will supervise the release of COSMOS data. The data will be put online at CADC.
-  Henry Joy will make the results of Lise's calibration accessible.
-  Henry Joy expects to have the 2nd pass background subtraction done on L.Deharveng and M.Hudson's data by the end of the week.

Developments

-  Emmanuel suggests to add a "distant" file browser within the Django ingestion interface.
-  It is proposed that a fitsverify checkbox is added to the ingestion interface, allowing to force the ingestion of non-fitsverify-compliant images. In any case, a report will be sent by e-mail.
-  An extra e-mail string widget could be added in the ingestion interface to send an email to an arbitrary set of addresses (curator, PI) in addition to the usual teraop mailing list.

System/hardware

-  The yppasswd problem has not been reproduced.
-  Fred has put a new 2.6.22 kernel for test on mix8.
-  Fred will put the content of the terapix disk on a Raptor SATA disk this week and try to find a pix good enough for rsyncing terapix. He tried to rsync the disk content on pix7 but got I/O error there. He will try to find another repository.
-  Emmanuel asks whether it would be possible to remove the alias between mix and terapix. Fred does not appear in favour of changing things.
-  Fred has asked Agorus to serve as a intermediate for the delivery of the missing screws of fcix4.
-  Fred will ask Rene Verriere about donating the machines to Olivier. He will ask to Gilles if the old rack is still around. In anycase it is decided not to give away the current pix rack.

Misc

-  The key for room 281 is at the "accueil", although Yannick has a pass. Henry suggests we use GnomeMeeting/XMeeting (which share the same protocol as the videoconf system) for future videoconferences with CADC when Yannick is not around.
-  Emmanuel asks everyone to fill up his holiday dates in dotproject ASAP.
-  Yannick has asked Jean-Charles whether it would be worth for Mathias S. to see him on Thursday or Friday.

next terameeting: probably on Friday January 4th at 10:00am
