Ongoing Actions --------------- [GV] Update BAR Script for the final release. [AP] Examine DJRA4.1 document and suggests/make necessary updates - update the conclusion [ALL] Email few lines of work plan for the next week to the minute taker. Completed Actions ----------------- [CP] Send link to BAR Script to GV [FS] File Savannah issue on "Check Activation Service Type against Reservation" [FS] File Savannah issue on "BAR Request failure handling (e.g. cancel NSAP)" [AP/KK] Submit a proposal for TNC 06 poster presentation before Thu 20 April 06. - can be submitted by sending a short abstract (100 to 250 words) by email. Please include your full name, address and affiliation (organisation) in the proposal. - This will continue out side EGEE-I contex [KK] Start preparing poster for TNC - This will continue out side EGEE-I contex [KK] Check latest changes in MJRA4.5 - This will continue out side EGEE-I context Discussion ========== Workpan ------- KK planing to finalise MJRA4.5 (e2e spec) document Won't have effort to update and finalise the BAR fucntional test. Same for BAR *client* fucntional spec. FS to mark where updates are necessary in the BAR design document. CP to address these as far as time permits. As far as the BAR development goes, only more system test are required. No effort to implement validation of activation - a savannah issue is raised. For accurate status, see the latest workplan document (v0.13), https://edms.cern.ch/document/694134/1 Testing and the final BAR release --------------------------------- The release is delayed by one day to resolve issues shown during system testing. The release of the final version is expected en of today. AP and CT are trying to resolve problems with GEANT2 AMPS at GRNet. Other ----- AP: in EGEE-II, the contact person for DANTE is Rod Well (SA2?). AP and KK will work on TNC poster out side the EGEE-I context. CP requested to monitor the deadlines. BAR email list will exist after EGEE-I. Use this to make any requests or annoucements. KK thanks BAR team.
