  1. LCLS Infrastructure
    1. What platforms do we support for running high level apps?
    2. Do we support running apps from the local desktop?
      1. Linux
      2. Mac
      3. Windows??
    3. If so, how do we deliver updates and new versions
    4. Main Window - Application Launcher - need to modernize
      1. Epics not great - too many windows piled on screen,
      2. SCP is better, but can be hard to navigate
      3. What does XAL provide
        1. simple main window with drop-down menu
        2. Any version update delivery support?
      4. What does Eclipse provide?
        1. Application View can be created?
        2. delivery solution?
          1. Has it actually been tried with a SLAC application - can we prototype/demo it? Greg
    5. Networks, Shared space, and Security
      1. Storing shared applications
      2. Shared Access to XAL xml files
      3. Don't even know what to ask, Steph????
      4. (Steph input from here)
      5. Will we need to keep XAL and Matlab apps developed by people outside the controls group under CVS control?
      6. Data files written by XAL and Matlab apps will need to be kept on shared drives and will need backup. How much space?
      7. Data files written on private network will need to be made available (read-only) to SLAC public side
      8. We will want to run some XAL nad Matlab apps (that do no control) on the SLAC public side using files from the private side (XML, data, what else?) plus read-only access to production PVs through the public CA gateway.
      9. Some XAL, and possibly Matlab scripts, will need to run standalone. That is, they start at server bootup time and stay up. We will need the ability to restart these and to add new ondes to the autostartup list.
      10. Will need access to printer queues around SLAC for XAL and Matlab printout requests. Is there a way to pre-define printers for the user to choose?
      11. How many Matlab licenses will we need to get? What Matlab features do we need? Who buys and installs Matlab?
      12. We need to install Till's LavCA package in lcls/epics/extensions
    6. Web servers
      1. doesn't the epics java archiver need one?
      2. Does SNS use java webstart for delivery of applications?
      3. Could LCLS?
