====Student Access to VPN==== Can we have a brief discussion at our next computing committee meeting regarding student use of the VPN? The instructions for getting access are in an area accessing only by faculty. I would like to discuss whether it is appropriate to open this up to students as well. My CS 360 students cannot get access to my MySQL server because the department blocks incoming MySQL connections. Rather than change that policy, which may be wise, I'd like students to be able to use a VPN so they can be authorized to access departmental resources when working off campus or in BYU labs. BYU wireless seems to block MySQL connections and BYU in general blocks the traffic. Students access if fine Loren: fix link for the configuration file Gordon: Move the documentation into an area where students can access it (docs.cs.byu.edu/general/VPN) |

====Monthly Report==== I would like to consider a monthly report for both our committee and the faculty in general. Things in the report:
The goal is to communicate with the faculty both the quality of service as well as our ongoing efforts to provide such service. Break into two tasks: monthly report and what needs to be worked on to add to the monthly report. Write the report for the needs of the committee. Start with the easy stuff that we have: easy
hard (put all the data into one place to look)
Daniel: Collate on wiki or other medium. Explore media wiki to see if we have a “public” area. Produce report for ourselves for a few months to see if useful to others. ====Committee Direction==== Review discussion and focus ====State of the Union Address: Computing Facilities==== We need to report to faculty what we are doing on the computing committee. How are we using our time and efforts? What are we trying to accomplish? ====SVN Servers==== |

Prioritize over 1057
Complete by April 20 Which labs are going to be open over spring and summer? Normally close the basement, but we will open 1029 to keep balance and seats. Hours will match the building hours as normal. Migrate in new machines during spring summer semester (1149 and 1060 and 1058) Gordon: coordinate migration of labs when the second floor is completed with Parris (let us know if you need anything). |
