Notes from whiteboard discussion (5/4/23)
The TAC discusses proposals by
- (large proposal TAC meeting) large proposal, facility, NLR
- (TAC meeting) facility, triggered, and NLR
where facilities are GBT, VLA, VLBA, HSA&GMVA.
The large proposal TAC meeting needs a large proposal focused Pressure Plot and focused a large proposal facility report.
We agreed to two comment boxes
- TAC comments for the PI
- filled out by TTA members before, during, and after TAC meeting
- to be reviewed the TAC chair
- Internal comments
- filled out by TTA members before and during TAC meeting
- will capture scheduler's comments for the TAC as they determine preliminary scheduling priorities prior to TAC
- will capture notes during the TAC meeting that may inform the TAC comments for the SRP
- assume various TTA members will communicate with each other as they edit the comments
- Note, this is not the same comments as the Internal Comments from the SRP, which belong to the Proposal Review entity
We agreed that Scheduling Priorities should be assigned to a Observation Specification Disposition and NOT the Allocation Disposition.
- There will be a 1-to-1 mapping between Allocation Requests and Allocation Dispositions
- There may not be a 1-to-1 mapping between the OS and the OSDs still.
We need to loop back to a discussion about the Pressure Plots.
