Action item (RID) CDP5-KDG-010 mentioned in MIRI-MN-00306-ATC_Test_Team_Telecon_106.pdf is probably one of the key things I'm to work on.

Good: MIRI-RP-00510-NLC-MRS_Fringing_Issue1.3.pdf

CDP5-DRL-019 RID is another I should probably be involved in (or watch) Alvaro is listed as the responsible party.

Keep an eye on RIDs regarding jumps in the MIRI PSF (and check out MIRI-TN-00002-ETH_iss2-2_MRS-PSF.pdf)

Keep and eye out for the CDP6 version of MIRI-DD-00001-ETH_Iss1-0_MRS_Pipeline.pdf on April 16th

I'm pretty sure I do not yet understand Fig 2 p. 11 (in fact most of pp. 8-16) of http://miri.ster.kuleuven.be/pub/Internal/CDP4/MIRI-DD-00002-DIAS_01.pdf

This looks useful for LRS: http://miri.ster.kuleuven.be/pub/Internal/PipeWorkGroupLrs/MIRI-DD-00010-MPI.pdf

"We have then provided a set of look-up tables, written to a fits format reference file, which can be used to calculate the correction by linear interpolation, with the precision of the procedure estimated to be \xB10.02 spectral resolution elements." -MIRI-DD-00006-ATC_MRS_Wavelength_v_Across_Slice_Position_Iss4.pdf

MIRI-MRS Links from Migo

The best starting place is probably the tech note MIRI-DD-00002-DIAS. It's attached to http://miri.ster.kuleuven.be/bin/view/Internal/CDP4 (MRS_Detector_Extractions_40aperture_and_optimal_41)

More info, essentially logs of email conversations that happened in 2012, is here MiriUseCaseMRS3Dextract and here MrsExtract3D

On a possibly related note, I've been working on a more simple-minded "vanilla" extraction scheme using standard aperture photometry on cube-level data. See tech note MIRI-DS-00011-NLC attached to Internal.CDP5 (MRS_Aperture_Correction)

WelcomeGuest should be linked from the page I land on when I click the logo, so should EditingShorthand

Searching for "MIRICLE" finds nothing yet MiricleInstallation exists. This doesn't bode well for the search function.

Is there no way to preview one's edits?!

On CalibrationPipelinePlan: "An initial stab at putting names to reports has been done, but a number of steps still remain without names. Please go ahead and add your name to any of the steps you would like to contribute to." Done where, add where?

CalPipeAlgDesc points to PipeWorkGroupRamps which is only the first part. Where are algorithms (or statement that they are as yet unknown) for the rest of the, especially non-vanilla, pipeline?

I'm noticing many, many pages that appear to be significantly (2+ yr) out of date despite my understanding that significant work is ongoing. Where is the current (e.g. mid 2015 - early 2016) status, mailing list archives?
