CI Status (Vieglais) Squashing bugs all week and now in good shape for deploying the sandbox environment. Today are working on sandbox environment and then will send out URLs. Won't be that interesting until tie in the MN environment. All the services are working on the development environment. CN can harvest content from MN; replicate content; indexing process appears to working. A few known issues but they should not affect the production environment. Need to finish deploying the CN installation then run tests (over weekend or on Monday) then can tie in some MN (KNB, ORNL DAAC) subsets. There is staging version of KNB that does have the full content that could be used. If no functional changes are required after setting up the sandbox environment, then the schedule would be similar to last week's with a week added on. However, if there are functional changes required, then more time would be required. An estimate of the public release date can be made once the all the components have been brought together in the sandbox environment. At that point we will know whether or not all the pieces work together. The public release will not be on March 22. 2. Around the Room Steve: nothing from me John Cobb: S&G notion seen on the web today (and heading to SXSW) using kickstart for crowd-sourced/microfinanced data archive efforts. hmm! (duraspace folk) Matt Jones: "Software Tools for Sensor Networks" planning going well. Currently have 66 applicants for 24 slots, so we're going to have some challenges picking participants. Bertram: participated in (co-organized) Dagstuhl seminar on Principles of Provenance: http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/program/calendar/semhp/?semnr=12091 Several ProvWG members were there (Paolo, Shawn, new postdoc: Victor); worked on revision of D-OPM, planning of upcoming ProvWG meeting prior just prior to IPAW at UCSB. Question for Rebecca: paperwork with Victor -- all going smoothly? (ETA) Paperwork has reached Victor and he is in the process of setting up an appointment with the consulate, which is the next step in the visa process. Suzie: nothing this week Amber: We will be opening registration for the DUG meeting next week. The dates are Jul 15-16th in Madison WI.
