Meeting Notes for 3 Feb 2010

Common

• Data server upgrade planned for 15 Feb
  • We'll put up a news item
• Email synchronization between wiki, forum and e-Lab remains an issue. What if a user changes an email address?

LIGO

• LIGO eLab will be presented at a conference tomorrow
• Mihael has made major progress on our new LIGO data server layer.
• Screencasts and google maps are embedded.
  • Present stuff is proof-of-concept stuff (could be replaced by a link)

CMS

• Query on event displays from the head honchos
• Right now planning on showing representative displays (static images)
• DanK working more on the CMS software
• Event viewer software use cases/wishlist
  • Web-based interface?
    • Giant pain in the butt
  • Non-interactive server mode?
    • Fireworks in batch mode and dump images (or a video)
• Why? - get to know the geometry of the detector, be nice to pick their own events and such. Why do events look similar/different?

Cosmic

• We need a canonical source for email addresses. Mailing list? Some other db?
