[Repronim-trd3] no TRD3 codeup today... sorry for a late notice

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

Dear everyone,

Rapid schedule conflict, sorry for a short notice...  I hope we
are all busy working on the assigned pieces and there will be more
commits and PRs (at least I can promise mine) coming up soon.

Bucc:
  - finishing up
    https://github.com/ReproNim/niceman/pull/137
    (see if feasible to run on travis may be in one of the matrix runs
    only).
      - express the desire (or not) to work on 
        https://github.com/ReproNim/niceman/issues/138
        but we should somehow account for it so the mega smoke test
        doesn't fail on my box
      - see if performance could be improved -- takes really awhile
  - IIRC there was a conda instantiation TODO, now I have made it
    into a dedicated issue:
    https://github.com/ReproNim/niceman/issues/139

Christian:
  - expose the introduced 'satisfies' checking, so we could see
    ATM if one .spec satisfies another
    (i.e. https://github.com/ReproNim/niceman/issues/104)
  - next step would be to enhance that interface to check if any given
    session satisfies a given spec
  - based on that generalize/extend to support other distributions we
    have (e.g. conda, vcs)

Matt:
  - configuration of Debian environments according to the spec:
    - establishing the APT sources definitions
    - installing missing packages
  - please review
    https://github.com/ReproNim/niceman/issues/assigned/mjtravers
    since some might have been dealt with already

Yarik:
  - Finish RFing manager
  - also I started to look into establishing 'tracing' for the sessions.
    The goal: to be able to collect a spec for an existing (or a new,
    e.g. for a docker image 'run') session
  - and leftovers in 
    https://github.com/ReproNim/niceman/issues/assigned/yarikoptic


Anything/anyone forgotten?

I guess the next online meetup would only be the next Thu Dec 7th,
2pm. But please do not hesitate to drop any question you might have and
do not be shy to push for review ;)

Cheers,
