Weekly Meeting

For the next week(Boris): Code : Finish some little things on PyTasks (need it for a project) and compare it to another task manager included in tools like waff and narval (not sure about pony-build) Design : Will read some of my bookmarks about distributed computing communication : Write a summary about task manager and about which protocol we can use for API

For the next week(Yeswanth):

Code : Not much this week( Will work on reading about python coding conventions) Other tools/design : Will go through condor or other equivalents and see how it fits in this project Communication : Report on condor (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/condor/) or other equivalents
