Agenda for the STEM Call on July 12, 2018
 
1. Update on STEM Version 4.0 Milestone 1: Jamie and Ahmad
*Order of menu contributions to master toolbar fixed; left spacers visible to ease control of where icons/controls go; may resolve confusion regarding “experiment” vs. “automatic experiment”; need to clarify documentation to highlight differences between the two, add warnings on the wiki   
*Jar file for Apache commons math 2.2 committed; build path in org.eclipse.runtime updated to run with the added jar file (eventually will need math 3)
*Work remaining: the red dot icons; also some testing
 
2. Build Server Decision: Jamie, Stefan, Ahmad, and Matthias
*Jenkins build server at IBM is being phased out; once Build 4 is complete, need to relocate on IBM cloud, Eclipse server, or server at BfR; maintenance requirements may argue for using Eclipse server 
*Ahmad on the logistics plan he’s developing for BfR
*Jamie on enlisting Stefan or Matt Davis to help move once Build 4 has been tested 
 
3. Proposal for STEM Version 4.0 Release: Jamie
*Will prepare slide deck proposal to submit to Eclipse for approval of when build is complete; will include request for approval for modification of Eclipse logos for STEM per bug 534480
*STEM will then graduate from Milestone status to a Release   
4. STEM Awards: Jamie
*Two STEM awards created as incentives: Committer of the year and Contributor of the year
*Development of a pmg image (“badge”) and verbiage for certificates and STEM website, wiki
  
 5. Project Updates  
*Emily: Working with Jamie on problem with weekly integration build on a Mac; Stefan will take a look; earlier issues involved using disease initializer with stochastic solver
*Taras: Problems running batch experiment in SIR modeling project
*Anna: Status of issues with equation, use of model generator to set value for transmission rate with 2 populations; assessment of YouTube video on model generator; possible feature request  
 
6. Bugs and Feature Requests  
534480: EMO approvals for current and future STEM logos 
530858: “Randomize Seed” feature moved to branch; bug marked fixed; Jamie will close  
530546: Avoiding misspellings in disease and population decorator; new, stem.ui-inbox
