Hi,
Enough people cannot make the 7th that I have reopened the doodle poll. I propose to take the most popular date as of tomorrow close of play.
My apologies that this has become so messy.
Best, david

Dear All,
I have had enough replies saying that enough people will have significant problems making this meeting that I am afraid that we will have to rearrange this meeting. I am very sorry that this is turning into somewhat of a dog's breakfast. In the previous doodle poll Wednesday's were popular. Please can people let me know quite quickly if they cannot make Wednesday the 7th of December. If enough cannot make it then I will start a doodle poll tomorrow.
My apologies again.
Best, david

Hi Harry,
This is a good point. I am forwarding this to the list to see how many people it effects. I also need confirm the arrangements for my own children.
Please let me know if this means you will not be able to make the meeting.
Best, david

Hi David, Wednesday 30^th November.

Dear David,
My apologies that I hadn't responded to your request.
At present I can make either of the dates you suggest.

Hi All,
The doodle poll has either Monday the 14th or Wednesday the 30th as the clear winners. I have a slight preference for Wednesday the 30th but can manage either. However there is no reply from Kenny Weir and I think that we need Kenny (or somebody to represent him) for the machine room update.
So Kenny, can you make either of these dates?
Best, david

Dear All,
I think that now the start of term is a distant memory and Christmas is not yet in our sites, we should have a Physics Computing Committee meeting.
I have created a doodle poll at http://www.doodle.com/nhkdwga64sh926ig
Clearly meeting times evolve and so I would rather have this meeting as soon as is reasonable so that people don't become unfree on days when they have said that they are free. The meeting will be held at lunchtime (I am easy as to whether we start 12:10 or 12:30 we can discuss). I would like to keep this reasonably short but I think that we actually have quite a few things that I would like to cover this meeting - so a business like approach will be essential. These include:
- Actions arising - I wouldn't normally explicitly add this but there are quite a lot from the previous meeting!
- Status and plans for the Huxley machine room replacement. I have cc'ed Kenny specifically for this item so we shall try to do it early in the agenda.
- Security (similarly early in the agenda). Chris Roberts gave a talk to the faculty IT committee and I think that something similar would be useful here. Matthew Williams is taking over the security brief (along with others that he has) from Chris. I have cc'ed both on this mail but have only asked Matthew in advance (sorry Chris).
- Data preservation and access. This is becoming increasingly important in RCUK policy and is something that we have to make sure that we comply with. I will post the RCUK rules in an appropriate place (see some comments below).
- A report on the current discussions of the computing part of the teaching review. This will be very limited as it is far from finalised but it will be good to get informal feedback from this group. It is of course up to other bodies to ultimately decide what happens here and so this will be informal.
- Lecture theatre AV facilities
- Then there will agenda items suggested by others - please send items that you want discussed.
- The perennial items (ICT status and plans, group round up etc)
Vivienne has sent me the minutes of the previous meeting. I would like to post these and other documents on a web site rather than fill everybody's inbox. We used to have a web page for the departmental computing committee (which was rather out of date) but this has disappeared - or rather I cannot find it any more. Does it make sense to move this to sharepoint or would people rather see the old website resurrected?
Best, david
