Status 7/13/04


- Received almost all of the data_set.cat files (exceptions:  RS, ATMOS, some Moessbauer RDRs (still being written), and some engineering data; APXS (done but awaiting PI comments).


- Resource links for Geo and Imaging have been delivered and turned over to John Ho.


- The date for delivery of the Release Objects to Betty has been moved to after 7/15 since they are not essential to beginning the review. John Ho will help me/Betty/Colleen understand the process for ingesting ROs.


- Build for pdscat1r49 has been moved from July 13 - 20 to July 23 - 30 to line up with the schedule for the MER Release (on Aug 3rd)


The spreadsheet schedule has been updated (http://pds/tracking/MER/datarelease.xls). (John and Alex - please look at lines 19 - 24 and make sure you agree).


Near Term critical tasks:
-----------------------------------
- Complete validation and ingestion of catalog files - due 7/14
- Complete input of resource links - due 7/14
- Ensure development environment is set up and inform GEO node of the urls for the development web pages/applications - due 7/14



Thanks,


Valerie.
