• Xeno Media Basecamp page for issues
• Several How-To pages are out of date
  • 2018: Adding links
  • ...
  • 2013: Creating Groups

e-Labs

• e-Labs issues tracking page (Google Doc)
• Uploads continuing to work on www.i2u2.org being served from i2u2-prod-24-test.
• Investigating differences between i2u2-prod-24 and i2u2-prod-24-test. Lots of differences in the live webapp directory.
• There are multiple ways to request an e-Labs account
  • Drupal
  • e-Labs self e-mail

Cosmic

• Cosmic Watches have been very popular at workshops. Several teachers have asked about purchasing CWs. Might it be possible to considering making, and selling CWs at cost? This could be a way to continue to promote CWs without taxing the budget and/or the logistics of centrally "checking out" sets of CWs.
  • We have specific interest from 1-2 teachers and will check with Mitch about the rules
  • If we do this, we'll try to do this in a way that is not a staff time-sink and does not deplete stocks from one school that has cash to spend.
• Cosmic Ray e-Lab analyses have dropped to 100/month compared to a normal 3000/month before the loss of Uploading
• e-Lab user (Terry Hart with DAQ5000s) has consulted with Edit and has a prototype standalone Python program to read raw data files in order to create a lifetime plot. This is good but we'll have to discuss the many of the hardware issues that have to be corrected to get an absolute time. We strongly prefer that we put effort into fixing the upload issues but mentors are considering desparate solutions.
• The pyramid detector readout has had a synchronization problem for a few months while we wait to a stand to be completed in Mexico City. The synchronization has been solved using the detector in Chicago. The detector in Mexico City should be moving to installation at Chichen Itza soon.

CMS

• CIMA issue continues. We are making Google sheets for masterclasses that take place this summer.
  • Plan to resolve before IPPOG at end of October by either placing old CIMA on CERN server or creating new CIMA
  • NOTE: Still working on this but focussing on the event content first (see below)
• Masterclass preparation
  • NEW: The new masterclass files are done and are here: https://cernbox.cern.ch/s/tBzolVT5pZVUnUA
  • There is a local version of the event display working with these new files but some modifications have to be made before deployment
