Minutes

  • Dev vs Strategy Meeting
    • Plan was to have the DfR meeting be primarily Dev going forward
    • For the moment, just including some Strategy topics in the one meeting
    • Dan: Still need to test the waters to see how much time we need for each
    • Jonathan has asked Dan and Andrew to join the strategy meetings, schedule to be defined
    • Dan: Would like to bring everyone up to speed on Data Conservancy and Tessella
  • Upcoming meeting with Peter and Tim: Wed at noon
    • Peter/Tim are on board, business arrangement has been made
    • Peter has worked with Danny before
    • Meeting is to make sure that there is shared understanding of the goals
    • Jonathan: Touched based with Marine Lab (part of Univ of California system) and Columbia about getting access to researchers for DfR feedback
    • Bill and Dan to look at the design docs more in depth prior to meeting
  • Sync tool development
    • Does the UI need to handle on-demand upload?
      • Dan: Expectation that the GUI would be doing nothing but setup
    • Bill: Thinking that the UI would collect info about the file system and present that to the UI for user to make selections
    • Dan: Having a pathway to an institutional server (on a server in the IT shop)
    • Dan: Example, if you have a 30 person shop, they likely share disk support and some applications: this works better as a webapp
    • Bill: Running on a local machine, the interaction is different.
    • Dan: Presuming the sync tool is running all the time, this needs to be the case for the sync tool to do constant updates
    • Jonathan: Prefer that the web UI experience
    • Andrew: Seems like we may wan to get a better idea of the requirements before making these choices
    • Dan: Expecting that file system access to be handled via the server side
    • Bill: Will be out the next two weeks, will have some UI design activities occuring in the meantime
    • Plan: Get back to this issue when we have the full time in attendance and when some UI design work has been completed
