meetings for the next two weeks

Hi folks, Since Dan is back in town and the IFS dev team is already meeting for the next two Tuesdays, I propose that we cancel the all-hands meetings on Wednesdays for this week and next week. I would like to have one on July 5 (before Dan leaves) so that we can all touch base again one more time with both Dan and I present. That way we know that we're all going in the same direction. If you would like to use the standing reservation at Baker Street for either of the next two Wednesdays for a team meeting, please let me know before noon tomorrow (Tuesday). I'll cancel the reservations if no one needs the space. IFS team I will book 312 for your Tuesday meetings. If you would like to meet individually with me, please send me an email and I'll schedule you in. I am taking some vacation days this week (T/W/Th) but will have time on Friday or next week. Judi

Seems like everyone is busy doing other things today- so there will be no meeting. Sorry for the short notice, but I don’t think anyone but me and Justin were planning on being there anyhow. This is just a formality. Judi

Meetings this week
by judi McCuaig 13 Jun '16

13 Jun '16

Hi all, The IFS team is meeting tomorrow at 4:30 to discuss requirements and API considerations in Reynolds room 219. If you are working in the IFS code, think that you might sometime be working in that code, or are just interested- please come to that meeting. The rest of us (and any of the IFS team who want to do two meetings this week) will meet at our regular time on Wednesday at the Baker Street Station. If anyone wants an individual meeting with me this week, I’ll be on campus tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday), Wednesday and Thursday during the ‘middle’ of each day (roughly 10:30-3:00). Just let me know if you’d like some of my time. Judi

This week's thoughts
by Judi McCuaig 06 Jun '16

I think that we can likely go with virtual meetings this week instead of our Wednesday gathering. Most of you talked to Dan while he was here last week, and likely don’t need extra oversight this week. I am going to be in the office quite a bit this week, at least some part of every week day, and can meet with anyone who wants to visit about their work- just email me and we’ll set up a time. So- no required meeting Wednesday late afternoon- but please do check in this week either via email, slack or in person. Judi
