News / Meetings / Visitors

  • CASA SW Engineer selection has been made, offer letter extended
  • CASA Architect Resume review this week
  • casacore SW Engineer position paperwork underway

Development

  • (KG) Responsibility of reporting to ticket submitters that their bugs are not prioritized for a given cycle (and putting the tickets on hold) ?
    • e.g CAS-11032 (labelled "major" not my radar in terms of priority but submitter is politely waiting for an answer for 7 months)
  • Plone Update: New theme transferred to casadocs-devel: https://casa.nrao.edu/casadocs-devel
    • Streamlined navigation, condensed organization
    • Moving away from auto-import of parameters/methods (probably still doing it right now though?)

Pipeline

  • Pipeline development for 5.4.0 - conitnued
    • Dirk Muders will be on vacation for 3 weeks starting next Tuesday. ALMA imaging tickets are so far in OK shape, but may need reassignment to Kana.
    • Possible memory leak in hif_makeimages reported by James ( CAS-11581)
  • pipeline infrastructure issue still under investigation (slowly moving on, forward or backword, not clear) ICT-11583
  • Discussion with Claire about requirements for VLASS Single Epoch Imaging Pipeline (SEIP) (5.4.0 and 5.4.x targets)
  • Discussion with Juergen about VLA Pipeline requirements - 3 tickets are created (5.4.0 and 5.4.x targets)
  • SRDP design discussion starts this week

Developer Reports

Monday Meeting
  • Sanjay Bhatnagar
  • Sandra Castro
    • Have been sidetracked from my 5.4 development by a couple of tickets from the VLASS pipeline on flagdata.
      • CAS-11482: warn users that quakcincrement=True is not supported in flagdata's list mode. Ready to validate
    • CAS-11432: add CASA version and build info to MS history: ready to validate
      • While implementing this, I noticed that tasks get ~ 10s slower when running the CASA ID hash. This can be a performance hit for several tests such as test_flagdata suite which contains hundreds of tests. The pipeline may also get affected by this increase in run time per task. Darrell and I thought that this could be caused by the new telemetry, but the solution is still TBD.
    • Have been updating and fixing some MMS tests that run in the ESO jenkins

    • Discussion with James about rapid increase of memory usage (memory leak?) in hif_makeimages ( CAS-11581)
