Agenda

Short Term (2020AUG / 2020OCT)

• Maintenance (Bug-fixing / Improvements) (Ralph) As ALMA is shutdown is this expected to take much time?
  • (Tomas) It is true that almost no new tickets have been created, but we still do have an interesting backlog
  • 
    
• Test Cases Stabilization (~15 remaining tests) – 2020AUG / 2020OCT
• Makefile Refactoring Pending Tasks – 2020AUG
• RHEL / CentOS 8 Support – 2020OCT
  • Should be 1 week of effort at most
• Investigate BulkDataNT upgrade to latest RTI DDS version (Ralph) what is motivating this upgrade?
  • (Tomas) Several BulkData Issues, renewing license process, avoid obsolescence, etc.
• Investigate problem with BulkDataNT and 2 NICs
  
  • 
    
• Homogenize logs sent to XML files and Kafka (Ralph) Is there a ticket on this?
  
  • (Tomas) Will be created by Johnny
• ComponentCaller to handle methods with Callbacks (Ralph) Is there a ticket on this?
  • 
    
• (Ralph) The last planning meeting added "BulkDataNT: Check data rate behavior with unreliable receiver configured with different qos_profile instead of a different qos_library". Was this done, dropped or overlooked?
  
  • (Tomas) We're working on this aiming to do it before Monday (2020JUN Pre Release)

Mid Term (2020 DEC --> 2021APR)

• Finish ACS Makefile Refactoring – 2020DEC / 2021JAN
  • Restart efforts with other subsystems
• Redesign Notification Service – 2020DEC
• TMCDB Split analysis – 2020DEC
  • (Ralph) The split analysis has been done by Alexis (ICT-9558 comment dated 2017-07-11). Getting this done for cycle 8 will reduce the number of mandatory back-ports. Can the split be completed before 2021FEB?
    
  • (Tomas) I believe it's realistic to do it before 2021FEB, but let's discuss it at the meeting
