Minutes

Dev vs Strategy Meeting
- Plan was to have the DfR meeting be primarily Dev going forward
- For the moment, just including some Strategy topics in the one meeting
- Dan: Still need to test the waters to see how much time we need for each
- Jonathan has asked Dan and Andrew to join the strategy meetings, schedule to be defined
- Dan: Would like to bring everyone up to speed on Data Conservancy and Tessella

Upcoming meeting with Peter and Tim: Wed at noon
- Peter/Tim are on board, business arrangement has been made
- Peter has worked with Danny before
- Meeting is to make sure that there is shared understanding of the goals
- Jonathan: Touched based with Marine Lab (part of Univ of California system) and Columbia about getting access to researchers for DfR feedback
- Bill and Dan to look at the design docs more in depth prior to meeting

Sync tool development
- Does the UI need to handle on-demand upload?
  - Dan: Expectation that the GUI would be doing nothing but setup
- Bill: Thinking that the UI would collect info about the file system and present that to the UI for user to make selections
- Dan: Having a pathway to an institutional server (on a server in the IT shop)
- Dan: Example, if you have a 30 person shop, they likely share disk support and some applications: this works better as a webapp
- Bill: Running on a local machine, the interaction is different.
- Dan: Presuming the sync tool is running all the time, this needs to be the case for the sync tool to do constant updates
- Jonathan: Prefer that the web UI experience
- Andrew: Seems like we may wan to get a better idea of the requirements before making these choices
- Dan: Expecting that file system access to be handled via the server side
- Bill: Will be out the next two weeks, will have some UI design activities occuring in the meantime
- Plan: Get back to this issue when we have the full time in attendance and when some UI design work has been completed
