Agenda

Short Term (2020OCT / 2020DEC)

• Maintenance (Bug-fixing / Improvements)
• (Ralph) Separate the HW and SW sides of the TMCDB
  • 
• Makefile Refactoring Pending Tasks – 2020OCT
• ComponentCaller to handle methods with Callbacks 
• C++14/17 Support
• Obsolescence Management
  
  • xercesc – 2020OCT
  • boost – 2020OCT
  • ACE/TAO – 2020DEC
  • mico (Removal!) – 2020DEC
  • cppunit – 2020DEC
  • (Ralph) There is a lot of obsolete software. I think every two monthly release should make progress on updating something. These two packages are good candidates for 2020OCT.
    
    • 2 per month would be nice, I will prepare a calendar, but will need to re-check if it's not too ambitious

Mid Term (2021 FEB --> 2021JUN)

• Finish ACS Makefile Refactoring – 2020DEC / 2021JAN
  • Restart efforts with other subsystems
• Redesign Notification Service – 2020DEC
• ACS and Java Modules (Just allowing the usage, no porting whatsoever) – 2021FEB

Long Term (TBD)

• ACS C++ Thread modernization – ~2021JUN
• BulkData Replacement
• Redesign C++ Logging

Other Input

• BulkDataNT Status and Alternatives

Not Relevant

• Homogenize logs sent to XML files and Kafka (Ticket still pending)
  • The approach was changed for now to be tackled elsewhere
• ACS and Java Modules
  • From tests performed by Ralph Marson, this seems to be a major task that may not be worth the effort
    • To be checked again in the future

Conclusions

2020OCT
