  In this first meeting we will discuss on who is working on which task(s).
  - TSA2.1 – Work Package coordination 5m
    
    F2F PEB: - Focused only on EMI 1 release - Fully supported the change to Policies and to must. PTs will explain why they do not follow the policies. - Make always clear: We will never block a release, but we report the metrics and the deviations from policies - Training requested for testbeds, tools and policies - Platforms for EMI 1 SL5/64, with EPEL EGI: - Meeting with the Quality Control and received their guidelines https://documents.egi.eu/public/ShowDocument?docid=240 Access needs registration on the EI portal * Compute Capabilities Quality Criteria * Data Quality Criteria * Generic Quality Criteria * Information Capabilities Quality Criteria * Operations Capabilities Quality Criteria * Security Capabilities Quality Criteria * Storage Capabilities Quality Criteria - EGI UF and EMI TF joint conference. I have asked/obtaind to have all talk in a good sequence and together. Moved to Tuesday now but still all together. https://www.egi.eu/indico/sessionDisplay.py?sessionId=13&confId=207#20110412 - Participation from the task leaders? - EMI All Hands Meeting. Lund University from 30 May-1 June 2011. Please reserve already these dates in your calendar. The very preliminary event page (just a placeholder for now) is at: http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=124206 + Next Step - Completing the quarterly report for this Friday.

We should follow our process to update the Policies. https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EMI/SQAP#Guidelines_for_the_Guidelines + Issues to Discuss - What's the status of Packaging guidelines? - If we install EMI-1 release candidates in the testbed, we won't have production versions installed anymore? Then, what happens with integration testing before going to production? + Steps Next Week - https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EMI/ProductionReleaseCriteria - Keep on migrating Guidelines twikis to Policy twikis. - Preparing training. - Review SA2.2 twiki to make reference to Policy and not Guidelines!
