Deciding that is part of the work that needs to be done in completing this move. The completion should not take too long, but it involves finishing the documentation and synchronizing with the list and outside development, etc. This has currently been delayed, unfortunately, as developer effort has been moved to the 2.1 user interface enhancements, which we have received feedback about being needed for the 2.0 workbench. We're doing these enhancement this and next month, and as I've stated in my previous email it's mainly me, Alex and Alan who's involved in this. I get your points that the informal discussions don't get caught in the public channels. The myGrid meeting minutes are public, but what perhaps has not been very well referred on the list is internal informal discussions that we do face to face. I agree that this has been a problem for a long time, but I'm not sure what is the solution to it - perhaps we should not be allowed to do so? At the same time as developers we feel the pressure from increasing amounts of emails, and adding to that burden (for instance this thread has taken almost 2 hours from me today, including my lunch) is not a very tempting thing when we have deadlines and pressure to get actual work done and software released. Since you left the internal myGrid list I've taken up your role in barking whenever a non-political discussion is taking place, asking for it to move to the public lists. Perhaps we need to be more stringent on this and "punish" wrong-postings. I can understand this from a human nature, you're more likely to comment on some matter to your friend than to write a letter to the editor of Guardian about it - although the latter would generate more interest and better responses. Also whenever we have a small conversation in the office about some topic, we could post about it on the list. I'll try that for this week, and we can see how it goes. > It's possibly slightly risky linking the wiki in this thread, as > currently it (hopefully!) lies, it's documentation for when the code has > moved which hasn't happened yet, right? The code has moved (copied), but it's currently only the "new home" for the 2.1 development I just mentioned. For instance the platform and Taverna 1 still lives in CVS - and so does the mostly untouched code from the Taverna 2.0 release. What lives in Subversion is the result of the restructuring of the Taverna 2 workbench. -- Stian Soiland-Reyes, myGrid team School of Computer Science The University of Manchester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
