Do you think it would be too much of a buzzkill to send out a message about that tonight?

From an end users perspective, some consolidation around workflow categories might improve usability - but we might want phase in a change like that.

Cc: Henry, Christopher S.; Jim Thomason; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>; Nomi Harris Subject: Re: [Release-team] IRIS testing needed If you can wait a few days before redeploying IRIS, that will give me a chance to fix something else: IRIS has a list of services that it supports. I noticed recently that the names that IRIS displays for these services (see screenshots below) often don’t match the names used in the Master tab of the Services spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/a/lbl.gov/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AriSbOyynCz1dDdJRHJBc...), which is what is used on the Services web page (http://kbase.us/developer-zone/services/, though note that it hasn’t been updated—I have a lot of changes to it once we finish this IRIS release). I think the names for services should be the same in IRIS and the Services page. (There are also the names used in the URLs for services, service docs, etc--but I’m not going to try to fix that now.) I thought a few of the service names in IRIS were better than the ones that we had on the Services page (for example, “Tree Service” -> Phylogenetic Trees and Alignments), so I updated the Master spreadsheet and will update the names on the Services page when the release is done. In other cases, though, the names used for services in IRIS are inconsistent (they variously are called “Service”, “Scripts”, “Tools”, or “commands”) and in some cases odd (why is the first one called “Assembly-RAST scripts”?). <Screen Shot 2014-02-11 at 10.09.14 AM.png><Screen Shot 2014-02-11 at 10.09.24 AM.png><Screen Shot 2014-02-11 at 10.09.33 AM.png> I propose to remove the word service/commands/scripts from all of the service names, so they will say (for example) “Assembly”, “Annotation” (or should that be “Genome Annotation”?), “Compression-Based Distance”, etc. I would like to send out a note to all the developers with the proposed “clean” names of all the services, and give them a chance to reply if they want to change any of them, and if I don’t hear otherwise, then on Wed. I will change the COMMANDS file in each service repo to match the cleaned-up service name. Sound ok? By the way, in terms of timing, I will be offline all day Thurs (until about 3pm PT).

I plan on doing the redeploy in test early in the morning, and holding the push to production until Thursday morning unless some new information arises. ---- Daniel Murphy-Olson Sr. Systems Administrator Mathematics & Computer Science Division Argonne National Laboratory 630-252-0055
