Minutes

• CAS Update. RickLively will send out an email when CAS is updated with new credentials. Folks should check any software that uses CAS and contact him if there are any issues.
• 22B
  • SRP Meetings. DanaBalser, AmyMioduszewski, and MarkClaussen reported that overall the SRP meetings went okay. MarkClaussen was concerned with the speed in some cases. There are still two SRPs that have not yet finalized their consensus comments. Once done DanaBalser will send an email to the TTA list.
• 23A
  • PST Requirements. AllieCosta presented the following tickets for discussion. The total estimated effort for the critial items is 13 days, whereas our nominial cutout is just 10 days (this does not include SSA-7317 which is only 1 hour effort and is not included in the cutout). ToneyMinter said that SSA-7315 could be done in 23B, so the remaining critical items would take 10 days. We discussed the two remaining major items and agreed that SSA-6130 should be higher priority. There was extensive discussion of SSA-6904; LorantSjouwerman will take the lead and refine the requirements for this ticket.
    • SSA-7317 PST Dashboard link should point to the new archive: Critical 1h. RickLively reported that this needs to go into the release before the CfP to inform users---not part of 10 day cutout.
    • SSA-7295 Adding new AGN panels/selections to the PST: Critical 3d.
    • SSA-7314 Expand GBT VEGAS Pulsar Modes for UWBR: Critical 2d.
    • SSA-7313 Add New GBT Ultra-wideband receiver (UWBR): Critical 3d.
    • SSA-7107 Add New GBT X-band Receiver: Critical 2d.
    • SSA-6130 PST: Sci Just size: Major 1d.
    • SSA-6904 PST: prefer RCT over GOST: Major 4d. Extensive discussion. The main issue is that we need to move away from GOST since this software is not being maintained. The plan is to suggest proposers use the RCT instead of GOST; we currently do this for P-band. But for complex configurations this can lead to multiple pages. The current input is for a png file. Allowing for a PDF instead woud make this easier. We agreed that there needs to be more discussion and testing to finalize the requirements. LorantSjouwerman agreed to take the lead and update the ticket.
    • SSA-7315 New GBT VEGAS Mode for Baseband Recording: Critical 3d. We agreed to do this in 23B.
• AOB
  • ECT Changes: EmmanuelMomjian asked if there were any ECT changes in 23A and if this would be affected by a future RedHat upgrade. RickLively reported that there are no changes this semester and any future upgrades should not be an issue since this software is web-based.
