Agenda:
Will start attending telecons to stay coordinated with DM.  All Hands Meeting agenda is pretty firm, will be posted early next week.  Looking to acquire simulated LSST image dataset for Google, working with Phil Pinto. – Suzanne Jacoby

ADASS -
Lots of good, potentially relevant technologies: Plastic, Visualization, Gaia pipeline framework, GLAST HTM spatial/temporal, Andrew Cooke’s VOEvent net, etc. Most valuable conference for DM by far.  SJ – Lots of good EPO contacts as well.

MREFC Proposal -
Estimates frozen first week of November
Indirect charges on equipment will be backed out where appropriate and contingency will be increased
Disk space will be increased, based on need to store more time history of source measurements
AC Network missing in pivot table, Jeff checking with Thomas Frey
Tear-down, shipping costs for equipment need to be addressed.

FY07 Contract Renewals
Amendments will be no cost, just period of performance extensions

DC1 Status
Has reservation for next week on Thursday, trying to move up
Still doing short runs, tweaking ingest.  Ray working on getting less than 1 week turn-around on reservations.  NCSA and SDSC TG machines are usually most stable, most outages are planned.  Purdue file system was very unstable.  Recommendations will be in the report to be more resiliant to TG issues.  Our runs are more complicated than DES runs because we are doing multiple sites, transfers between, just batch mode, etc.  They were not focused on data rates, not sure what statistics are available.

Ray Plante conversing with Jon Thaler, Camera team is planning to spend DOE money on a software person for DAQ/CCS, maybe locate the person at NCSA, better DM connection.
