* Logger Framework with new loggers
====Release new loggers for 1.2.3
====Delete old loggers and views for 1.3
* Shape File Import Utility ( ********* EXPOSURE: Eclipse has not made progress yet on Open Map CQ. Possible Interim step - write import from KML)
* Integrating external models for study of food based transmission
* New Differential Equation solver(s) from commons.math library
* Population Rescaler
* Bug Fixes from 1.2.2
* Improvements to the graph editor
* Need presentation slides for 1.3
NEW DOC FOR 1.3
* Dengue
* Initializers
* Loggers
* Malaria (done)
* Mosquitoes VCAP (done)

CONTINUED DISCUSSION ON MODELING OF FOOD MEDIATED DISEASES
Jamie created new "Transformation Decorator" in core plugin. First use of it added in the org.eclipse.stem.foodproduction plugin.
Stefan is making progress on square lattice to share w/ Matthias.
NORWAY MAP UPDATE FOR/FROM DISEASE PREDICTION SERVICE FOR NORTHERN NORWAY?
Map doesn’t register w/ others due to pixels. Jamie may recommend that Kassaye load his map into Google Earth.
SHAPE FILE IMPORT/IPZILLA, ANY UPDATES?
BUG OF THE WEEK 315250
Now a new feature request. Should we display a warning every time a disease model is saved indicating the models/scenarios affected? The target for this was 1.2, now most likely 1.3 if we decide to do it. Question: Should we do this? Jamie: A feature request and a UI thing to be addressed later; will not use a pop-up window, as it would be disruptive.
