Meeting Minutes (26 October 2010)

1. The items in the current plan of record were summarized:
   • Add Users to Projects: there is a proposal to add a new field that can be updated by the PI to add users to their proposal. This new field will allow users to view the proposal in question and other tools (e.g., OPT, DSS) can use this field to allow added users access. This issue will be discussed in the PST meeting on Thursday.
   • Misc. Items
     • Add information in the XML about disabled accounts. This has been completed. It is no longer necessary for the DSS since they are now using the mirror directly and the global ID.
     • Restrict account names in the user database to valid strings. This has been completed on the test server. DanaBalser will check if this has been pushed to the production server and if existing names have been modified.
     • Add an XML query by group. This has been completed on the test server. DanaBalser will check if this has been pushed to the production server.
2. BOS/my.nrao.edu user database merge. DavidHalstead will draft a paragraph on how to proceed with the merge. KaiGroner will come up with a timeline on the BOS end. There are several dependencies:
   • Login page. KaiGroner will remove the current BOS login page and redirect to my.nrao.edu.
   • Phone Book. BOS is used to update the phone book and there are also connections to JD Edwards.
   • DSS. The DSS needs the reservations for scheduling. This is one driver for the merge.
3. We will meet every first and third Tuesday of the month at 11:00 ET as neccessary.
