| ValueListMAnager | N/A | Increased maximum-row-count in table so that it does not truncate lists with more than 500 items. |
| LORE - JR6 Expanded Report Definition | N/A | Deployed latest report definition to so that ship report matches shore version of report; adds several new columns for raw-data-file-name, raw-data-file-link, Instrument, etc. |
| LORE IW Report | N/A | Modified report definition to include sampling tool (in preparation for uploading new water samples that will be distinguished by tool used to acquire sample). |
| LORE BW Report | N/A | Added new report in preparation for taking samples using new Multi-Temperature Fluid Sampler tool; modeled after IW report except that samples are not taken from a core, they are acquired using a down-hole sampling tool so samples are parented directly from a hole. |

Special Projects / Issues
Velocity
Technician on this previous expedition demonstrated that user does not have a chance to review data, in particular the offset value, before the data is saved and uploaded. They would like a small change to Velocity to add a "pause and review" feature after they pick the first arrival (or it is auto-picked by the application) to allow them to review all of the information to make sure it correct before the data is saved and uploaded. This issue remains outstanding.
CahnBalance / Coulometer Applications
Home Screen Module
Chemistry technicians requested a small change to the login module. When a user clicks "Change Login" on home screen it immediately logs the current user out and so the user must login again before they can continue using the application. They would like this changed so they have an opportunity to cancel out of the login screen and keep the current user credentials so they can continue measuring samples.
History Module
Chemistry techs reported that the history display screen sorts all columns in character order. They would like the numeric fields (standard-deviation, mass, ,etc.) and date fields (timestamp, etc.) to sort in proper numeric and date order respectively. This represents a significant modification to the history module; including initializing it with data-type information when it is started by the main application.
Cahn Balance Host Computers
Worked with ALO and MCS's to convert two older model laptops to host machines to run CahnBalance software. These will be used in the Rad van and the DOE van to be installed during port call in San Diego.
