Present: David, Mattias, Balazs, Aleksandr, Oxana
== News
Balazs finished his TODO part; learned about the cloud pre-procurement project of CERN.
David had a look into A-REX crashes that are going on for years, managed to get some core dumps and updated one of the bug reports (http://bugzilla.nordugrid.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3427). Aparently crashes happen when aCT is attempting to re-start a job that failed and comes to think that it didn't work, then tries to cancel the job and this cancellation causes segfaults in A-REX.
Aleksandr was working on reducing amount of polling of jobs and their states in a-rex for few weeks. Should enhance scalability.
== Bugs
* 3544 - re-assign to Christian
* 3545, 3546, 3547 - keep on infosys
* 3548 - re-assign to Gabor
* 3533 - will be implemented via a new configuration option
== Release
Jon is not around; trunk is too unstable for new feature testing, so a synched release branch would be handy
== AOB
Balazs proposes to copy the EMI-ES spec from https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/pub/EMI/EmiExecutionService/EMI-ES-Specification_v1.16.odt under the http://www.nordugrid.org/documents/ and list it on the documentation page under the " Computing Element -> Resources for developers" section
Aleksandr wants to create a new development branch for the next major release for clean testing, needs OK from Jon and Anders (so far we developed in trunk)
