Minutes

• Discussion and conclusions:
  • We'll use BIRT reports for all of the web based user interface for the Eclipse Con 2007 demo.
  • We identified 3 key data access APIs, though more APIs may emerge:
  • getTopologies(), which returns a collection of POJOs for the topologies.
  • getNodes(topology_id) and getNodes(node_id) which return a collection of top-level children of a topology and a node, respectively.
  • getProperties(topology_id) and getProperties(node_id), which return a collection of properties for a topology and a node, respectively.
  • We worked on the specifics of the demo script steps, trying to call out a simple but effective set of BIRT-able reports for each kind of information.
  • Identified the need for report mockups that capture the essential data.

• Coordination:
  • Marius will work on data access APIs.
  • Valentina and Ali (and others) will work on SML-IF example document for demo.
  • Craig is in Germany from 20-Jan to 26-Jan. He has evening travel and business meetings that conflict with most of the COSMOS call times.
