  In this first meeting we will discuss on who is working on which task(s).
  - TSA2.1 – Work Package coordination 5m
    
    PEB: - Focused only on EMI 1 release - On having checklists for teams to quickly know what to do. - Training for testbeds, tools and policies - Platforms for EMI 1 SL5/64, with EPEL - Question: Can the testbed be used at the EGI TF for training purposes? EGI: - Meeting with the Quality Control and received their guidelines We need to review the Generic QC and compare them to ours (is probably quite quick for the authors of the policies + SA2.5?). JRA1 and PTB reviewed the ones about the technical matters. https://documents.egi.eu/public/ShowDocument?docid=240 Access needs registration on the EGI 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. 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. http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=124206 + Next Step - Training, testbeds, metrics reports, verification of the releases of the PTs (with QC) - Check the QC criteria - Check the reports fro the product teams

    Sa2 Meetings
  - TSA2.2 – Quality Assurance Process Definition and Monitoring 5m
    
    + Status and Progress - Preparing training - Waiting for some clarifications in Change Management Guidelines - Testing policy and Certification policy announced. + Issues to discuss - None + Steps next week - Review UMD Quality Criteria - Work on SQAP and add all new changes
  - TSA2.3 – Metrics and KPIs Definition and Reporting 5m
    
    + Status and Progress - not much to report, was away and came back to some logistic problems for the UF2011. - small changes to SQAP definition metrics schema to deal with ARC non-integer values. - Useful SA2.4 reporting meeting yesterday, chaired by Lars. Successful builds metric is very good now. + Issues to Discuss - having problems running remote builds correctly. "Build Execution" --> "More options" doesn't seem to work, meaning that we can't add --autoprofile to the "Build Command:". Adding --autoprofile to the "Checkout Command:" results in an aborted build. + Steps Next Week - describe how to plot the backlog management index metric
  - TSA2.4 – Tools and Repositories Selection, Maintenance and Integration 5m
    
    + Status and Progress EMI - Some work on DSA2.2.2 - Packaging Policy and Configuration Integration Policy completely updated - EMI Tutorial Preparation and execution Infrastructure - Big problems solved with CVI Hypervisors - Big problem in deploying LXETS worker nodes for EMI 1 RC1 - Monitoring scripts for ETICS WN - Ideas about how to improve VM performance ETICS - RSS and Welcome page updated with client 1.5.0 and 1.5.1 release notes - Glite 3.2.66 build error investigation - Etics-dev configuration build error investigation Support - 4 new externals - 1 configuration changed - 6 GGUs tickets closed - 1 new user + Steps Next Week - Complete SA2.2.2 - Migrate the EPEL run as root WNs - Support users on the tools for RC1
  - TSA2.5 – QA Implementation Review and Support 5m
    
    + Status and Progress > 2.3 small progress 2.5 Verification and validation plan -in progress https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/EMI/TSA25 discussion about certification report and verification and validation plan, some of people mix term, VV report is a part of certification report
