JJ: _[GPII-2238]_

_[GPII-2249]_: Research how Microsoft Learning Tools are implemented

     o Actual research is done in [GPII-2258] or [GPII-2257].
     o Initial report for this issue is almost complete.


_[GPII-2258]_: Implement a PoC of an Add-in that controls the settings and running state of other Add-ins

     o It has been empirically confirmed by PoC that we are able to
       reload a OneNote Addin at ‘on-the-fly’. In this case ‘Learning
       Tools’.
     o The process of detecting that Microsoft Internal runtime has
       free the resources in order to reload the Addin is a bit hacky,
       because there isn’t any standard way of doing it. (Introspection
       API).
     o Next step will be, to be totally sure that there isn’t any
       standard way of doing it before proceeding with this
       implementation, but it requires more "investigate" Learning
       Tools and insides Microsoft API. It should take so much time,
       until be totally sure of its limitations.
     o We have been also started a kind of wiki, with the procedures,
       tools and resources used for the deconstruction of this
       Microsoft product. In order to increase the speed for next items.


_[GPII-2257]_: Evaluate differences of Learning Tools between several Windows products.

     o Just after finishing point 3 of [GPII-2258] this investigation
       would be resumed.


Joseph

 * GPII-8: GSettings handler core dumps on non-existent key.
     o Addressed Javi's (pedantic) comments, and pushed -- ready for
       more review.
     o https://github.com/GPII/linux/pull/90
 * FLUID-6090: model-ized the StateTracker component.
     o will revisit to use IoC testing framework.


Sandra:
    - Work continues to support hardware sensitivity testing.
- Should have new installer from Ale today or tomorrow, which includes Michelle's new GPII-app.
    - Listening to Udacity course on Intro to DevOps.

Simon:

 * Continuing with Nexus work
 * Security chats with Cindy
 * Reviewing Antranig's https://github.com/GPII/universal/pull/497


Steve Grundell

1. HST stuff:
    1. Detection of the gpii instance is in - Ale says he'll continue
       it - Oh no, I said that? :P "mañana" - for the record, "mañana"
       in this context may be tomorrow, or in 2 months :P classic spaniards
    2. Started GPII-2248: port 8081 in use


Tony: :P

1. Completed the last of the import scripts to bring in GARI data for
   the UL user testing.
2. After consultation with Alfredo, fleshed out a plan for deploying
   the new UL website.   After initial hilarity with libvips and
   Centos, have completed all the preparation that can safely be done
   in parallel, will make the full switch tomorrow.
3. After long consultation with Antranig, gpii-binder was just merged. Notably, I figured out a key problem that resulted in spurious
   failures at the end of each browser's testem run.
4. Working on the PR for gpii-launcher, will likely take a bit longer,
   but looks promising.
5. Based on feedback from the OAuth2 team, will work on the cleanup
   cycle for parts of gpii-pouchdb later this week:
   https://issues.gpii.net/browse/GPII-2267
6. Will start working on the "live solutions registry" using the
   "documentation driven design" method, i.e. writing the docs first to
   get the craziest ideas out of the way before I write any code.
7. Super excited that people are using gpii-webdriver in anger, send
   links to branches, etc. if you encounter problems, happy to give
   advice or pair.


Tyler:
    * AWS cost estimating
    * Learning what constitutes a GPII Demo
    * Resurrect IDRC Grafana (metrics collection and visualization)
* Poke at running Ansible continuously (https://issues.gpii.net/browse/GPII-2261) <https://issues.gpii.net/browse/GPII-2261%29>


*_Agenda:_*

 * *Update on MatchMaker to Simon Bates and Steve Githens*
     o https://pad.gpii.net/p/201612-washington-f2f-effectology-mockup-1z1h4n35


 * *Source code line length* (let's keep the discussion short :)) like
   80 characters short? HA I got this hot new computer with a nice 80
   character display:
   
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/IBM_3277_Display.jpg/1280px-IBM_3277_Display.jpg
   (Ale is jealous of the keyboard) That keyboard is nice and clean but
   those arrow keys are giving me a migraine already."keep sessions as
   short as possible" - Do they sold that keyboard?
     o GitHub 'Unified' diff view is 980px, for me this works out to ~
       120 chars +1 +1 122 now? yeah! or perhaps 123, just
       because...Oddly, all the different text colours here in the
       comments make me think "painting the bikeshed".
         + This varies depending on browser/platform - but generally
           120 chars seems to fit into most/all environments
     o DECISION:
         + As a starting point, we will use 120 characters for all
           javascript files
         + This will be enforced in eslint
             # We will do this in iterations (ie. first modify the
               .eslint in infusion and fix things there, then next
               repo, etc) rather than doing it with our shared
               eslint'ing rules.
         + We will not have any enforced length limit in .json files.
