== Minutes ==
* Note build etc status items in Agenda above (not repeated here)
* Kepler 7.0.4 build - Carston has pushed his fix for https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=427474 to Gerrit; needs approval. Beth will approve to get it into build. Hoping this will go into tomorrow's aggregation build for SR2 RC3.
* Dave completed check-in of mpich debug support for interactive debugging in master/Luna.
* John has refactored synchronized projects backend, working on refactoring/cleanup of front end interface.  Makes sync projects more efficient.
** Likes Steve's command line integration (GUI terminal), feels this is important and useful
* Chris has done ETFw refactoring, cleaned up storage in variable maps, cleaner implementation.  Fix for revert bug will be available soon https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=416426
* Carston explained that caching has been added to monitoring's LML_DA.  This was presented at September ptp-dev meeting.  Multiple clients attached to same remote target can share info from remote system.  Shares data in /temp and updates only if that info is too stale.
* Wyatt has worked on SI2 proposal including src markup.  Mostly testing and bug fixes.
* Steve reported on doodle poll for a date for PTP Hackathon at LSU.  http://doodle.com/bis9hf2qp7s78g3a#table
** Apr 24-25 is best date so far. (Beth updated info, would have to leave early Friday). 8 participants including Steve.  Wyatt can't attend if the SEA conference tutorial happens (likely). But could call in. 
** Steve will check with Greg and Jay but tentatively confirms these dates.
* Steve got help with Gerritt problems; Notes that commit amend and reset author fixed his problems.  Will update wiki page at https://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/Gerrit
* Carsten is starting to work with Gerrit, commits to ptp70 and master.  Who should we put in as reviewer? What are our guidelines? Can we review our own changes?  John E volunteers that if change is complete, need another reviewer.  Simple change: can review our own.
* Beth has done tutorial proposals, build testing, doc bug review and fix, and ptp-user meeting.  Will edit and make ptp-user video available (Dave Wootton gave demo of ptp debugger including MPICH enhancement).  See https://wiki.eclipse.org/PTP/PTP_User_Meetings#January_29.2C_2014
** Will do XSEDE tutorial proposal soon. Asked for ideas on SC tutorial proposal to enhance acceptance likelihood. Steve asked if remote includes bug were fixed which caused problems.  It's https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=416658.  Steve will bump with comment, need to work on this.
* Wyatt has created a PTP Youtube channel. No videos added yet. Has created a basic PTP video.
* Next meeting March 11
