To see the full text of these defects and enhancement requests go to the aips++ defects tracking page and enter the defect number in the appropriate entry field. The final field in each item is my best estimate as to how much time it would take me to do that work. Not all items have an estimate. Many of these have already been postponed for a long time and so continuing to postpone them is a very reasonable thing to do.

Defects

Filler
- A new filler tool is required for filling each scan range. AOCso04460. 1d.
- Filler should release the locks on the filled MS when it is not actively filling. AOCso04512. 4h.
- Various problems with sharing locks in an on-line environment. AOCso01726. 1w.
- Replace gbt-specific columns with more general standard columns. AOCso03541. 2d.
- Fill DOPPLER table with SYSVEL value. AOCso04231. 2d.
Dish
- investigate (and improve) getscan performance. AOCso04014. 1w.
- import (and other functions) fails ungracefully when given silly input. AOCso03940. 1w.
- add a positional criteria to average functions. AOCso01372. 1w.
- appendrec takes too long. AOCso03913. 1w.
- multi spectral line support (also includes filler). AOC04233, 04232. 2w.
FITS
- can not read an optical image. No reply on most recent request for the example file. AOCso03509. 1d.
- problems converting a FITS file. AOCSso02831
- Loss of keyword(s) in FITS conversion. AOCso04220.
- loss of beam parameters in imagefromfits. AOCso03973.
- SEVERE warning about long keyword. AOCso01423.
Glish memory leak. This may be due to the known glish memory problems (which are unlikely to ever be solved) or it may be due to simply sloppy glish programming. Probably 2 days of work to understand the source of the problem. AOCso03964.
IARDS takes too long to display a scan. AOCso03814.
Other
- POINTING table index class needs a more intelligent search algorithm to improve performance. AOCso02368. 1w.

Enhancement Requests

FITS
- Add large file support. AOC03996. 2w.
- sdfits2ms/ms2sdfits channel selection would be very useful. AOCso00919. 1w.
- allow sdfits2ms to append to an existing MS. AOCso03333. 1w.
- Error messages are too obscure. AOCso00881.
- sdfits2ms fails on sdfits written by Parkes livedata. This is primarily a dispute about what constitutes valid sdfits. AOCso02798.
- bad documentation in FITS classes. AOCso00470.
- Floating point keywords should be translated to doubles in all cases. AOCso01975. * tablefromfits fails on an apparently valid binary FITS table. AOCso00298.
Dish
- Implement tcal and tsys spectral averaging in line with calibration documentation. 3d.
- Generate some form of FITS (SDFITS or CLASS fits or other) from the dish flat table (save) storage. 1w.
- Generate a new MS from the dish flat table for imaging purposes. 1w.
- Allow changing of sdrecord names in results manager from the command line. AOCso03334. 1d.
- display memory used in results manager. AOCso00857. 1d.
GUI
- widgetserver missing highlight options for buttons. AOCso00996. 1d.
