General.
Thank you for explicitly commenting on CDR3 actions.

Possibly missing: Is there any ACA development work, apart from support?

REPLY
Not that I am aware of.

p.9 Version in EDM seems old.
Please look for the document in the IPT Level Documents under Computing at:
http://edm.alma.cl/forums/alma/dispatch.cgi/f.iptlevelrel/docProfile/100181/d20050929140520 (2005-09
-29).  Please indicate if modified (EVLA) detailed requirements have been considered, and in particu
lar if/where they had an impact at all.

REPLY
OK, I will retrieve this document and check if there are relevant 
changes with respect to the version I have been using. 
EVLA requirements are referenced in the Architecture document, but I have not created any 
specific table in the planning document.
Shall I do it?

p.11 Under Japan A. Caproni at 50%  is missing

REPLY
OK. Caproni was reported in the ESO section.
I will move him under Japan.

p. 11, 2.2
K. Abe (0.3 in 2005)
C. Paredes (0.5 from 2006)
Do we need to discuss the percentage and job description
of C. Paredes?

2.3
K. Abe 2005 only at 30%
C. Paredes starting 2006 at 50%. 

REPLY
This means that Abe will not work any more as Japanese support for ACS
and that he will be replaced by Paredes at 50%?
I was not aware of this change.
I will updated the table.
Gianni: do you confirm?

p.16 Total 23.5 FTE-y (up to mid 2007).
Given that 29.4 FTE-y are planned for ACS up to 2011, of which 4.5 after mid 2007, there is a small 
mismatch of 1.4 FTEs here. But also what is the activity foreseen for the remaining period? I would 
suggest some kind of upgrades, not possible to plan now.

REPLY
OK, will do in this way.

---006--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(GianniRaffi)
p.20 .1 minor releases.
I would skip them from now on, meaning that ACS should try to introduce big changes once per year. B
ackw. compatible patches worked well during the R3.1 period and gave time to do re-engineering with 
Control. Something which could be repeated after ACS6.0

REPLY
OK, will do in this way.

---007--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(GianniRaffi)
p.21 the dates for RR, PAR etc are wrong. Please check Computing Milestones under CDR4 Issues and co
rrect.

REPLY
OK, will do in this way.

---008--------------------------------------------------------------------------
(GianniRaffi)
p.31 http .. 5.1. Presumably this should become 6.0
Is this the same as what asked for CDR4, namely to consider use of CORBA trough firewalls, http for 
use by OT?

REPLY
Yes, it is the same.
OK, will do in this way.

p.36-37 Thank you for having created an explicit section with Ops Reqts. All ops. reqs. Have been ad
dressed.

REPLY
You are welcome.
