  • Guider upgrades: proceeding with NIRES

  • KCRM, no updates

  • K1 Pier Repair: grout repair was planned, postponed until 23A. No 10 night shutdown in 22B. Shutdown night on July 5 on K1 to test thermal properties of pier. Followed by ENG night.

    • Test pour in visitor galley was inconclusive, so delaying pier repair to mitigate risk

    • May be further reduction of AZ slew speed

  • KPIC upgrade: changes to pyramid, now not science functional, still working on it, juggling schedule to work around it

    • Nem providing remote support

  • K1 KAPA: struggling with AO performance

  • Jim: K2 pupil image is out of focus … why?

  • LRIS Refurb: plan is coming together for FY23

Software workflow tools for DSI Translator development

Josh

• DSI/DDOI Translator development will commence soon. The rest of DSI is being done in git+GitHub. Since we will be involved in Translator development, do we have a strong opinion on whether development workflow should be in git (& GitHub?) vs. SVN?

  • e.g. Do development in git (or GitHub) and push releases in to the SVN repo or vice versa?

  • Note that git != GitHub

  • Worth considering what future developers will be familiar with

• Want simple things to stay simple
