 * MOPS tool for processing: specs + development
 * MySQL databases optimization. Full report [wiki:201103_Optimization here].
   Conclusions:
   * Nebulous optimization took 2 days.
   * Nebulous huge tables sizes have decreased of 20% / 25%.
   * GPC1 optimization took about 2 hours
   * GPC1 tables have globally shrunk in size by 27%.
   * It would be highly interesting to optimize in one week?/month? to see if optimization lasts so long.
 * Other:
   * apache log of ippdb00 has been moved to /export/ippdb00.0
   * ippdb01 MySQL should be cleaned (1648 tables in total while gpc1 is 96 tables).
   * ippdb02 doesn't work as expected for backup.

 * PSPS
  * added user instructions to ippToPsps documentation (as I realized, during my recent absence, that no one but me could run it)
  * some time pulling various images, stacks and cmfs for Jim for MD04. Time figuring out filter type of new stack cmfs that were missing headers
  * 2 new passes of stacks from Gene. 1st:
   * extensions names changed from demo file
   * all fluxes invalid in psf extension
   * SkyChip.xsrc and SkyChip.xrad extensions empty
  * 2nd:
   * now populating ApFluxStDev from SkyChip.xrad
   * headers empty
   * work on xfit extension: Sersic, deV and Exp models. Plan to load FITS straight into a Db in order that I can cleanly query the data. Alternative is to write lots of code to do what databases already do.
  * walk-through of nice new DXLayer from Conrad. Loading some test batches to test it works. It does!

 * IPP
  * added 'interested servers' list to XML config for roboczar
  * added comments to Config class and XML config

 * Other
  * sick on Monday
  * general catch-up after two weeks off
  * lots of mailing-list admin
