A

Hi good morning, everyone today is Tuesday. March 28 is a weekly Jupiter def meeting and today we have a number of things to cover I'm running off my iPad. So if I look in a different direction as usual, because I'm looking for the camera on top of my computer and not at the camera on the side of my ipad, let's look at our action items from last week. It looks like we have a jupiter lab 0.18 out, so thanks steve way to go Boop pat on the back good job and so check that out.

A

Please try it out test it see if you can find issues and report back what you find. Next, we have some action items that are hanging around from the week before last and before that. So Matthias isn't here today, but he's still looking for feedback for his async Ruppel implementation. So there's a link there you go there make some comments.

A

Matthias is also looking for thoughts on what cutie API version by Python should support. There's a link there to the issue and then grant is looking for people to test notebook. Five point: 0 0 b 2, which is actually RC one. So let's just come together on what we want to call this puppy, RC 1 and then finally, this has been in there for a while, but go ahead, and you haven't already weigh in on the great red line debate and the link is right. There.

A

Ian is here to continue to capture action items high in and this week carol is going to post the notes on the mailing list, since Matthias is on vacation this week. So great, let's see we thought our weekly news by organization. So again, team leads. If you want to share your screen during that time or just use those the news as a tool to help you update the team on what's going on in your different sub projects, that would be great I will move into the project management section.

A

Last week, I distributed our notes from the brown bag that we had at do gap for the reproducible science workshop, there's a really good feedback from folks in a couple different departments, namely biostatistics bioinformatics, computational biology and then there's a visualization Center at the library there. At doose's doing some fairly cutting-edge work, so I can share I'll post a link to that for the group to check out once I'm finished, giving my update next, we have Jason can talk about this. A little bit more.

A

Some folks of us here, berkeley carroll, participated in a valuation of Jupiter labs or looking at gender inclusivity. I was pretty interesting. Looking at different information processing styles that seemed to cluster by gender and how to reflect those and software tools. I, certainly learned a lot and Jason Kidd Jason can go into depth a little bit more on that one, but he was so kind to organize that for the Jupiter lab team. So thanks Jason.

A

Next we have oh yeah so last week, I help move the declarative, widgets projects to the Jupiter, which is org so just kind of healthy things, move along. So thanks guys for that sylvan stepped in Geno and Peter stepped in to help, but get that done, and then last week, I loaded the question of what char next tutorial be and a couple folks thought that widget would be a great tutorial, so I said Jason and so in an email and I haven't heard back from you guys. So what do you think.

B

That's like a good idea, we're going to give a coriolis on widgets in a few venues in the next weeks anyways. So we have to prepare something we got less so sounds like a good in all.

C

Right they give it give it a couple of weeks right now. We're really clearly documenting the widget protocol and revamping and cleaning up a lot of the crust. That's accumulated over the years and so give us a couple weeks to do that and then I think. It would be a great time to have a tutorial that not only talks about widgets in general, but talks about the recent progress we've made towards widgets bueno cool.

A

Perfect and so if I tried to schedule something for like the end of April beginning of May, would that be reasonable? Okay, great cool also I wanted to bring to folks attention. There was and Carol jumped in and commented on. This too. There was a request on github to do a release for the Qt to have to look it just popped into my head and they have to circle back.

A

Let's see, QT Council yeah, that's what I thought: okay console and folks on their wanted to release it, so I think they're going to go for it. Yep I wanted to share that with the rest of the group in case there was anything else that dangles off of that across the pink the team.

B

Ellison's organs that yeah.

D

B

Has been involved in.

C

The mouth yeah yeah.

A

So it sounds like it's a good hands.

A

So we'll just let that go great, so those are all the updates I have for this week. Next, we usually do I Python, but Matthias is out. If anybody has any I Python, let's see is Thomas here, nope feel free to share ipython stuff. If you have ipython updates, otherwise we'll move into the notebook, so it looks like grant. That's you.

E

Everybody hear me yeah, so um we released notebook rc2 last week um and it looks like there's no new issues related to five point. Oh so we're we're going to plan on releasing I point o general release this week. um If anybody has any feedback about our CT who please let me know in the next couple days, but I think that we'll plan on releasing probably on Thursday or Friday.

A

C

E

A

E

A

Want to put that in the notes, I'm.

E

A

You we're okay, and that was it so next that we usually do that be convert my crowd today, so we'll do move into services and then can't make it today either sometimes Pete steps in Tina's also away today. So let's keep going to Jupiter lab Steve the area. Okay, we.

F

Released 0.8 seen last week, which is just a Python package. Now there are 52 packet of JavaScript package, is now associated with Jupiter lab that are all published under the Jupiter lab we're at Jupiter lab Oregon mpm, so that the big split is done with that.

F

So grant has already been plugging away, trying to use it and we're thankful to him for that and I spent most of the last week trying to clean up after that mess in terms of what's the new developer, workflow and light of having 52 packages all managed together, I think we're at a pretty good solution out there and I've worked pretty hard on that. Darren also did some work on the cleaning up the completer. There are a couple outstanding bugs, so it's a really nice type behavior on the unclear kudos name for that.

F

Chris release, foster 10 and it's committed to API stability. So that's that's great for us as the biggest consumer of phosphor, and so the master of Jupiter lab we've already converted over all our packages to the phosphor 10 packages. So the next release across the board will include that and that'll make things a lot more stable for consumers as well check the list again and I. Guess jason has a note here about the gender inclusivity workshop that you want to take that Jason.

C

Sure yeah we we had a short workshop with Margaret brunette, with the gender mag system for basically taking some personas and walking through I workflow in your application and looking at it from different learning styles beings for different outfits.

C

That people have, for example, whether the risk adverse or they want to try to try to pokin and push things and things my break compared to had another faster to be people that like to read everything beforehand and understand everything before doing anything and versus more experiment, experiential learners anyway, so we took a persona and walk through a workflow, and it was a really good experience. I posted the link to the materials up there. If you guys want to look at it, I I'd highly suggest watching the video on that website.

C

First, before looking at the workshop materials and stuff, but all of their materials are actually open. Sourcing online is so you know we went through it for the experience, but really you can you can do it yourself as well.

C

Carol did you want to say anything about it? You were defending it as well. I.

D

Thought it was great and thank you and I think we should do at least parts of it as we look at new releases and things.

C

A

If ya interested.

C

In doing that, weekends and airports, the person that created the system, which is the first thing that we were sitting down with she sounded like she- was interested in helping I, basically to impact the world. So if other people are interested in doing something like that, we can sit down the fair or or or we can sit down and try to recreate the experience we had sailor help help somebody see there is this.

A

Sounds good, can you guys hear the jackhammers in the background? On my end, no I got that one.

C

More thing this is revolutionary. It just changed my life for dropbox paper. I I, don't know if you guys knew this, but if you copy a link somewhere like I'm browser- and you highlight some text and Dropbox paper and paste so automatically make that highlighted text a link to whatever the link to this post of you copy.

C

Really, it's just kinda.

B

C

That it's just double-clicked on something and I forgot that I was trying to make it a link and I just tasted it, and it made it a link like magic anyway. Try it out brilliant.

A

Awesome well, alright, I'm going to try to keep myself to a minimum since now there's construction going on outside. So next we have widgets till the end. Jason.

C

I think the biggest thing is: is that we're trying hard to document the protocol and so I put a couple links to the current documentation of our message protocol and our model attributes.

C

This is a call from people that are trying to implement widgets or implement back into finance or widgets other than outside, which is consistent, ejs, religious and just to try to make things a lot more to find so I think we have good documentation in there now for what's in 64 know, and of course that was revealed a huge them a bunch of crust and we're trying to clean that up as fast as you can and maybe pretty soon release a seven point out with a revamp, widget message, specs and probably not so much things actual, which is themselves for mostly eyes changes.

C

I visited they don't make a lot easier for people to implement. Is it just protocol? We also have a few new TRS their system or PR, some people that are cleaning up recommendation so being three new people I contributed to the 0 and who is documentation, sisters that we really appreciated.

A

Great thanks, Jason um looks like Jupiter hub is neck Carol. Do you want to okay today sure.

D

Pretty much moving along on all things: Jupiter hub mins, going to be working more on 00, often and all the goodness that that will bring us and also refactoring some of the proxy stuff to make it easier for folks and I went through and closed a whole bunch of issues. Yesterday and I'm going to do the remaining spawners and authenticators later this week and that's about it.

A

Thanks Carol yeah I was really incredible when I opened up github the other day and there's just like my notifications. Is this huge list of issues that have been closed by Carol willing? It was just a whole list of red and which is, in this case a good thing as awesome thanks, alright, so for conferences and outreach, we have one new one to share with craft 2017, Budapest shall I say buda-pesht and April 25th 228, giving a tutorial on I pi widgets. That sounds pretty fun. That's sylvans you're going to speak there.

A

Can you add that down.

B

Getting it I did I did to the to the board and just earlier today, and it's just.

D

B

Tutorial the same thing: we're going to do that at skype: I, ok,.

A

Fantastic you'll get some good practice leading up to side by cool and then the ones that we've already announced. The team meeting will be made. 20 yeah may 29th to June second here in Berkeley, and we have a couple things going on in April, mainly code lands is happening, pi data, Amsterdam and then coming up in May we have pi data London and then in June, pi, Paris and then, of course, in July SI pie and the CFP deadlines for syfy are closing in I think one actually they're up.

A

So hopefully you got your your toxin pit and papers and posters and everything it there's also a high cotton at the end of May. This is right. Yes, yeah I would bring up I like bringing up the schedule every week, a little more difficult to do that with my current, my current setup on the iPad but yeah PyCon coming at them inmates, so with Jupiter con just a quick update, yeah thanks to all the reviewers on the program committee. We finish the review process yesterday.

A

There were about 200 proposals that folks went through and it was really interesting to go through and read the the talk proposals and to see all the different things people are working on that relate to Jupiter. So we'll start shaking those out and not sure I think we have a date for when the announcements will be made, but I can provide a more concrete date, probably at the next meeting, alright, so governance, then we don't have any governance updates.

A

This week, I do have kind of a standing appointment to meet with brian to update some of the documents based on the fall depth meeting. So you should see those in the next couple of week.

A

Releases this week include notebook five-point, oh boy, no and upcoming releases, our I by Colonel 4.6 and notebook 5, we're looking at thursday and friday up this week, and we will also be getting a jupiter lab 0.19 release when Steve tells us okay and there's an issue for that. So everybody who's watching can keep track of that issue. Thanks Steve great anyone else have anything they want to share with the group. It's not in the notes.

A
