In case you missed today's meeting...

*Pilot Issues:*
_UC Berkeley 1.2:_
-high cpu utilization on their 1.2 all-in-one deployment. They've incorporated Adam Mckenzie's patch and will see whether that fixes the issue. Should know shortly. -Ingest-temp folder isn't being cleaned out when a recording fails to upload. Re-opening MH-7711. -Proxy issues may be related to issues above, so testing without proxy. Should know shortly. Encountered timeouts for large recordings but increasing timeout has solved problem. -Data sector on capture agent which led to a ton of ingest retries. The ootb configuration was too aggressive and eventually partial uploads in the ingest-temp directory caused the disk to max out. Adjusting settings available in the capture agent should mitigate this issue, but ideally the capture agent

_Saskatchewan 1.2:_
- Service Heartbeat marks servers offline too quickly resulting in false positives. MH-8290. Scheduled to be fixed in 1.4
-encountered high cpu utilization but Adam's patch seemingly fixed it.
-Processing failures on media package due to nonce time outs. MH-8273. Fixed in Trunk. Will be added to 1.3.x branch.
-Restarts servers daily, but 20 courses!

_Northwestern 1.2_:
-Encounters high cpu utlizatization. Needs to restart daily. Waiting to hear back from Berkeley re: fix results.

_Capture Devices_
Matterhorn "official" open source capture agents seems stable and reliable. (shocking but seems to be the case) Ghent university, Harvard, and others find epiphan devices (mostly) works now, but it has a delayed ingest issue. They find the quality of the video mediocre.


*Unconference:*
Hank Magnuski (Ncast) suggested more developer topics and a developer workshop. He'll post some suggestions on wiki and engage on list. High level overview from previous conference already exists. http://opencast.org/opencast-matterhorn-presentation-jasig

Northwestern and UC Berkeley expressed interest in helping with QA.


*1.3 Maintenance Release*
QA still happening. Some release blockers still remain, but have been assigned out.

*NCast Update*
The M4 software is done and available for anyone with an M4. Port to the PR-720 line is underway. Hank is checking on 1.2 compatibility.

*Koemei*
A high accuracy speech transcription company will offer professional services (and integration via Entwine) for Matterhorn. UC Berkeley looking to do a small scale pilot. This output can be used to increase discoverability via search. They claim 95% accuracy for english speakers.
