MN showcase: Member Nodes who are present, please discuss your status: LTER (Mark) - metacat right now, affected by a recent issue (CN and other metacat-related issues); metacat upgrade should correct some data synchronization issues; when the metacat stack is stabilized, LTER can migrate to the PASTA GMN Dryad (Ryan) - very nearly a production MN (hooray); Ryan to register with production, may be able to flip the switch today or tomorrow NPN (Alyssa) - data through 2012, then added through 2013; working just fine NKN (Ed) - MN s/w installed and working on a pre-production host (sandbox); next steps: need to make changes in local data cataloging system to support DataONE data needs (including checksums and DOIs at file level) - using UUIDs as identifiers; for checksums, MD5 is supported EDAC (Rob) - in stage currently and want to do a bit more testing Digital Antiquity (Adam) - has a Java question, Rob can help - looking at the documentation and other MNs' implementations; is there a way to test that we've implemented the client correctly?
