10/27/2010

Task and Documentation Tracking

On call: Jamie, Tom, Matt, Stefan, Dan Tero, Arik, Traci, Matthias, Judy

 

Farewell to Tom

·         Leaving Almaden and heading back to Thailand tomorrow

·         Has done a lot of work during his time at Almaden

·         Developed mosquito model

·         Drafted paper Jamie is reviewing, then Judy and Arik to review

Contribution from Tero

·         Sent patch to Matt; patch looks great!

·         Matt has applied first patch to trunk; hasn’t yet committed

·         Matt will post comment on Bugzilla for Tero to reply to, stating the code is his and he has permission to contribute it; Tero will respond

·         Is working on changes to the equals method; has removed hatch code

·         Still needs to change all instances to reflect new method

·         Essential to move to CDO

·         Dan: Once do regressions, ok; need to find all instances

Release 1.1.1 Plan

·         Date for release changed by consensus vote; now 12/3/2010 instead of 11.22/10

·         Matt: Concerns were around major bugs; triggers and modifiers; and Earth Science data

·         Stefan: What to show for Earth Science data? Tom’s model?

·         Jamie: Releasing only one year of data for Earth Science plug-in

·         Need to include tool in Release 1.1.2 to include more

·         Matt: Need Release Candidate out several weeks prior to official release

·         Group: Agreed to change release date to 12/3/2010 (instead of 11/22/2010)

·         Stefan will update metadata

Items from Participants

Matt: Already covered

Stefan: Working on some bug fixes

Traci: Latest integration build ready? Yes

Tom: Thank you to Jamie, Stefan, Matt and other STEM folks

Judy: Submitted paper to Elsevier; in reviewing documentation on wiki, need to be sure documentation on tool for Earth Science data is completed prior to Release 1.1.2; will issue tickler in Jan/Feb timeframe

Tero: How is unit testing proceeding? He’s getting about 50% failures; Matt: Still in progress, but getting better; Jamie: Input as to meaningful tests appreciated

Arik: Looking at malaria risk index as a way of modeling malaria, perhaps bite rate, transmission; Jamie: Look at Tom’s code, literature—this is a calibration issue perhaps not best understood as population vs risk

Traci: Posted query re disease parameters on Newsgroup; Matthias responded; Ro different from transmission rate (Beta); Jamie: Covered in paper now under review at Epidemics; Judy to send Traci preprint; Jamie: Need follow up documentation clarifying transmission rate

Matthias: Dublin core issues; helpful to store unit with parameter; need to rethink; will submit Feature Request; Jamie: Will look at options to address context sensitive help; Matthias: Will go over documentation from Armand (?), material Jamie sent from Sondra on standards is helpful

Dan: Looking at Buckminister and target platforms; some kinks with internal data project; working with two projects, can ID target platform as RCP3.6, click for download; frees us from running different versions of Eclipse; increases stability; specifies dependencies, users can build consistently; Warning to group: May see some clean up coming through; currently STEM uses a product build, this will be a feature build and will keep things in sync automatically; won’t replace ant script, but will have to do only once; features build has plug-ins (including data plug-ins) grouped together; internal data projects not part of features; Stefan and Matt will check out the two projects

Jamie: Will be in all day meeting next week; Dan to coordinate moderating with Stefan
