TIER Update
There is ongoing work on TIER APIs
TIER Packaging Survey
- Grouper got mixed reviews regarding installation process
After discussion, here are some action Items coming out of TIER Packaging survey:
[AI] (Shilen) create log with warning for GSH (based on input from packaging survey)
[AI] (Chris) make patching and upgrading work on a source directory (based on input from packaging survey)
Misagh asks how will survey results be used by the TIER project?
Chris: we should ask that at the next TIER packaging WG call
Misagh suggests we should focus on making sure the UI is comprehensive and consolidated enough
Chris: Agree, but we have mostly put off the UI consolidation for the Grouper 2.4 release
[AI] (Chris) get rules into new UI, for inheriting privileges
[AI] (All) think about TIER Packaging survey results and items that we could fix with relatively low effort
Editing attributes in UI is hard to do
Misagh: the questions on Grouper provisioning targets are not directly related to packaging
Chris: the TIER Packaging WG is also looking at installing and configuring issues too, it’s also about administrator usability
Issue roundup
· Consolidating ldap pools and config
· Sample unboundid server
· etc (having email problems, will just discuss on call)
