* Brad
- make research group more productive -- products are
  * knowledge created
  * knowledge disseminated
  * publications published
  * publications downloaded and cited
  * code created to make publications
  * code used by close collaborators
  * code downloaded (perhaps by and used by outsiders
- group overhead reduced
- knowledge created, disseminated, made impactful
- have work be focused on specific funded grants
- work independently
- provide sw engineering help and support to individuals in the group
- A+: get wrist distance-map tools usable by Trey's group, Evan in particular
  * registration code broken (manifolds issue)
  * ligament length code broken (probably manifolds again)
  * get manifolds into the fold; work from Cindy's source control?
- A: understand why Evan had to copy code rather that using our source within source control
- A: help direct Sidra and Wudan to improve visweb
- define some google analytics goals and track our performance on them (high time on page, low exit rate, visit download pages, visit other target pages)
- update site to improve those metrics, e.g., images not getting well indexed by google because of link structure
- review Daniel Acevedo's web e-mail feedback for ideas
- focus on brain or wrist to preserve allocability, but make globally useful
- better availability of talks and videos that we make
- many ppt's already around -- could be videos with a narration
- a number of full videos already around, some on web, but not easily found
- streaming video server?
- put things on utube or other distribution sites?
- create a plan to make available brain diffusion imaging data (perhaps coupling to an existing NIH-funded site)
- be general enough to also support wrist data, gene data, proteomics data, etc.
- is there any kind of "push" technology for sending papers to lists or individuals (spam...)
- A: shift to more principled software development
- do so incrementally to preserve existing knowledge of users and existing code
- bug tracking system?
- determine some principles for sw
- main shared $G is read only
- explicit writable checkouts by default instead of implicit
- all sw components have tests
- nagging scripts
- code checked out too long
- missing tests
- failing tests
- regular tests of outside infrastructure (net flakiness, disks filling up, etc.)
- address missing tests, etc
- better solution for linux compiler versions
- don't break windows and other platforms
- get off g++/gcc 2.95
- have some better mechanism for transitioning to future compiler versions
- better documentation setup and documentation for sw development
- guidelines for quick prototyping
- guidelines for interfaces for distributable algorithms (e.g., segmentation, ITK?)
- goals for full applications that will be shared
  * for paper production
  * for running computational experiments (tool development, prototyping, testing)
  * for production-oriented data-driven work (tool production use, e.g., wrist data, brain data)
  * for hardware resources (wheatstone, cave, etc.)
