For Iceland no more them 0.5 FTE for P2. In general it is a good idea to share the FTEs, the tasks must be clearly defined.
For DK 0.5 FTE is envisaged for technical need to help users to come on to our installation.
Apart from 0.5 FTE to help researchers access, there is the high-level track that needs to be defined, bulk of work envisaged to be done by PM though., as we see now from phase 1, in Phase 2 there will be similar tasks.
There is a need to look at the tool for monitoring the consumption of the work. Minimal amount to make sure it works.
Regular Dellingr project meetings help move the project.
Project plan point 3.3.2: priority of the objective. Sentence is a bit dangerous?
- Swap for "continuously and efficiently"
In the resource exchange are we considering compute cycles only or storage also? Storage was not discussed in Trondheim.
- Caveat that there is storage for compute. In DK there is a grace period to move data away.
Decided to focus on storage later once other things work.
Decision:
The project plan version 2.6 approved by the SG.
Dellingr SG F2F 17-4-03. Decision: Dellingr continuation into Phase 2
