CS-Studio Agenda:

Details depend on specific interests of actual participants.

Please add your ideas here:

CS-Studio/RCP on Java 9

• It simply needs to run on Java 9. How do we get there?

Phoebus

• Demonstration of current features.
• Add hooks into CS-Studio/RCP to launch content in phoebus. Idea: CSS serializes PVs etc. into clipboard, then start something like “phoebus clipboard://?app=databrowser” to have it start an application with content from clipboard.
• Review 'help wanted' issues as opportunity for those interested in joining to get started.

Web Displays

• RCP-based approach lacks performance. At last EPICS meeting, promise of joined effort by Klemen/SNS and Ryan/JLab on common web display tool. Should we support that and retire the webopi?
