Pipeline Updates

• Self-cal workflow discussion ongoing. Sent a note to PLWG to share my thoughts.
  • I do not think this should define uvcontsub requirement too much. Uvcontsub should be flexible by itself and that will help flexible workflow definition in Pipeline. Talked to Urvashi about my thoughts.

• Wataru Kawasaki
  • CASR-411 - reading a reference paper for ON-ON observation. Will discuss with Kazufumi to create a CAS ticket.
