(10:41:53 AM) epmclellan: you created new test sips?
(10:41:58 AM) berwin22: functionality
(10:42:31 AM) epmclellan: maybe you could update the minutes with this, I don't understand
(10:42:43 AM) berwin22: but functionality implies usability

(10:46:50 AM) epmclellan: should I be testing that yet?
(10:47:08 AM) berwin22: yes, you can test
(10:47:15 AM) epmclellan: ok, thanks
(10:48:19 AM) epmclellan: Any more dev?

(10:49:30 AM) berwin22: and I replied back
(10:49:34 AM) epmclellan: great
(10:49:38 AM) berwin22: will probably need to send them the files
(10:49:55 AM) epmclellan: better ask CVA people first
(10:50:18 AM) berwin22: that's after they're normalized, so they're like 3.2 gb
(10:50:37 AM) epmclellan: how will you send them the files?
(10:51:00 AM) berwin22: magic, and by that I mean, I asked them for suggestions
(10:51:05 AM) epmclellan: ah
(10:51:15 AM) berwin22: probably over the internet ;)
(10:51:24 AM) epmclellan: magic, as you say
(10:51:32 AM) epmclellan: but talk to CVA folks first
(10:51:42 AM) Austin: no more from me
(10:51:48 AM) epmclellan: thanks, Austin
(10:51:53 AM) Austin: berwin22: howd cva go?

(10:52:38 AM) berwin22: but otherwise good
(10:53:20 AM) Austin: cool
(10:53:24 AM) epmclellan: sounds painful :)
