Jeannie is continuing to pursue information regarding the release of patch cluster 4. It is needed for Collection Exchange.
Jeannie is working on updating the schedule for Memphis.
Memphis is going to send Jeannie a sample of their notice mailers. She will try to confirm whether or not they will be compatible with Unicorn.
A dialogic board for the SVA server has been found but has to be tested before it can be ordered for Memphis. This testing is expected to be completed in mid to late January. At that time the boards can be ordered for Memphis and work on their SVA server will be completed and the server will be shipped to them.
Ordering of the IBM printer and Ethernet adapter card was discussed. Memphis is ready for this to be ordered and has asked whether or not installation instructions can be given to them rather than having someone come onsite to install. Jeannie is investigating.
Pam Tejes will now become the SureStart consultant for Memphis.
For the final data load, Memphis has requested load reports at the end of each load rather than after all data has been loaded. Jenny said that if time permits and the loads are going well, she can do this for them.
SVA documents and information were sent to Memphis this week.
