| − | * Alex : make the wiki faster : how ? software / hardware solutions ? |
||
| − | * Alex : security is never perfect... do we have a daily backup of the database (ie all wiki contents) ? |
||
| − | * Marco Dorigo (MD): I would like to discuss the "duration" of MEETOPT and MEETROBOTS meetings. |
||
| − | It seems to me that we should set a firm limit to the talk and discussion parts. May be 30 min each? |
||
| − | * MD: Time change for MEETADMIN of Dec 8, 2005 |
||
| − | * MD: People should identify themselves when producing items in this list |
||

||
| − | * Online career development plan |
||
| − | * Coffee machine: This time we will choose which one to buy |
||
| − | * IRIDIA Christmas dinner |
||
| − | * IRIDIA lab webpage - It is not reall necessary to discuss this point as it is already in the works since long (but before we work on it we need to have the database ready and filled, which will take a few weeks more) and it will be finalised sooner or later! |

| − | '''''Results''''' |
||
| − | * '''Faster Wiki''': We are in the process of buying new hardware, that should solve the problem. |
||
| − | * '''Wiki Security'': Security and network infrastructure is changing, backups, security, etc. are getting reviewed and reimplemented. |
||
| − | * '''Duration of weekly meetings'': 30 mins for presentation, 30 mins for discussion MAXIMUM. Will be enforced. |
||
| − | * '''Schedule change''': 8th of Dec. the admin meeting will begin at 10h00 instead of 10h30, due to a clash with a lecture. |
||
| − | * '''Rack HD space policy''': If the free disk space becomes less than a certain threshhold, a mail is sent to all containing statistics on who is (ab)using all the space. A mail is sent monthly to everyone listing who is using how much. In case this does not work quotes will be implemented. |
||
| − | ** Max: I have implemented two cron jobs on majorana: the first check every hour if the available space is less than 30% and in case send an email to all_AT_iridia, the second is the monthly report on the status of the used space sent by email to all_AT_iridia. |
||
| − | * '''On line career development plan''': Go to the [[StudentsIRIDIA]] page and fill out your career development plan. Currently, the pages are public, but soon this should change (Alex + Anders). |
