Web sites
Standa: arrange wiki, i.e.:
- remove Dashboard > OpenMI 2.0 doc
- rename Review page to OpenMI 2.0 page ( Standa : add reference to this page from wiki.openmi.org Done)
- etc. (adjust related texts)
Pages not yet referenced from www.openmi.org, will be done when standard is formally released.
Peter: make proposal for openmi.org site (news, button, etc., referring to the wiki).
Release of OpenMI 2 News 0_3.doc: Proposal OK, can be sent to Steve. The final text will be put on the www.openmi.org "More flexibility with OpenMI 2.0" button. From this page people can go to the wiki.
OpenMI.org: redesigned buttons:
OpenMI_org_old.tif : the current look
OpenMI_org_Buttons_Draft01.tif : OpenMI 2.0 on top
1.3 OpenMI 2.0 at conferences, workshops etc.
Integrated Environmental Modelling Summit USGS
- 7-9 December 2010 at USGS Offices in Washington
- A few OAEC / OATC representatives present, surely OpenMI 2.0 will be mentioned.
OpenWater Interoperability Symposium at IHE-Unesco
- 20./21. April 2011 at IHE Unesco in Delft
- OAEC suggested that someone from OATC should present 2.0
One of the Dutch OATC-members indeed will give a talk.

2. Roadmap to OpenMI 2.0 as suggested by Standa
2.1. Documentation
Updating of the Documentation

status |
|---|---|---|---|
Incorporate text on Standard Extensions in OpenMI Standard2 interface specification |

SV |
Will be done in week 47 |
Migrating models |
|
SV/JGr |
Will clean up the document and check it (JGr>SV>JGr>Steve). Will be done in week 47 |
Maybe change the names for OpenMI Standard2 interface specification and OpenMI Standard2 Reference manual ?
They will be called OpenMI Standard 2 Specification and OpenMI Standard 2 References ( action: Peter )
2.2. How to

How to upgrade from version 1.4 IEngine |
Did it work now? Will be included to the official release? |
(JG)/SH |
OK. Question of Sobek migrator: why discourage LinkableGetSetEngine? Answer: too much like the old approach. |
time-dependent / time-independent mixing |
how to mix time-dependent and time-ignorant model components |

4. GUI
The Pipistrelle based GUI will be in a Fluid Earth (most probably) source forge project, which starts in January.
We will keep the GUI in, but indeed with a readme.txt indicating its incomplete state. Adrian: create readme.txt and nention the GUI's state and purpose on the wiki pages.
5. SDK
Work is being done on the SDK, following the work of migrating existing engines.
Status:
- Example of how one input can handle multiple outputs are implemented/tested. Check out: https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/openmi/wiki/MultiInputSupport
Everyone: have a look at the MultiInputSupport.
Stef had a look. We keep it in. Jesper will try to answer as many of the todo's/questions in the code as possible, and mention that the GUI-code will later on be adjusted to show how the multiple input works.
A project plan is probably required in the near future (when the standard is released), in order to have the SDK move in a proper direction.
Jesper and Stef will look at the SDK, clarify things were possible, and report what in their opinion still has to be done (next two weeks)
6. Project management tool
Suggestion: Use the Trac wiki at sourceforge to keep track of tasks, feature requests, bugs, enhancements etc. and also discussions that covers many meetings.
Check out:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/openmi/
You need to log in (using your source-forge username/password) in order to get full access (to edit wiki/create tickets)
We will use it.
Experiences?
