| + !! Bing Zhu |
| + Completed Tasks/ Bugs Fixed: |
| + * June 7 - June 12: Developed a Perl script, data_uploads.pl, which gets a list of Niche Modeling image files, extract and process metadata for each file from Niche Modeling metadata directory and then upload image files and their metadata into SRB system using SRB's S-commands. The Niche Modeling data was successfully uploaded into SRB with the Perl script. I will work with David Stockwell to integrate Ecogrid grid APIs for data retrieving and metadata querying. |
| + * June 14 - June 19: vacation |
| + * June 21 - June 26: vacation |

| + Completed Tasks/ Bugs Fixed |
| + * We (Haowei and I) have just made available for download a PC version of the WhyWhere software (http://biodi.sdsc.edu/ww_home.html) - datamining for ecological niche models - Son of GARP. |
| + * We also, thanks to Bing, put my entire dataset on the SRB. The distribution contains a subset of the data. Now that Bing is back we will be exploring ways to make the larger dataset available to WhyWhere, and will start looking into ways the ecogrid project can be used for this. |

| + Completed tasks/bugs fixed |
| + * Got Steve's LDAP authenticator working. |
| + |
| + Current Work and Bugs |
| + * Working on bug #1597 - Now that I've gotten Steve's thing working, it needs to be integrated with the taxon server, and with the LSID system. I've written to the Kansas folks about either helping install that stuff, or providing good directions on how to do so. |

| + Significant issues |
| + * I'm taking a month off, starting on Thursday - except for a conference call with the SEEK group, which I'll do whenever it is. I'll be contactable via email intermittently during July, and I'll be back in the swing of things on August 1st. |
