   * the data are being written as two fake 'timing bins'. ugh.
   * the way they are being written means there is a lot of redundant data.[[BR]]
-    !MarkW suggested 'packing' the correlations in some way, after discussion this was judged not worth the effort.

  * Coping with hardware failures: if a module dies, lots of channels will disappear from the bandpass. However these will not be in a contiguous chunk. We'll need a way to deal with this. The discussion suggested the 'channel weight' flags can be used for the continuum case at least.
   * In the case of zoom nodes, each central frequency is a separate (FITS binary) table with all baselines in it (including the n-n "autocorrelation baselines"). The spectral weights feature is in the RPFITS library already, but it writes all baselines for every visibility; this leads to a 50% overhead in the raw data files. It's unclear how to deal with this.

  * Jamie will be dealing with "CABB issues" from day 1. He will be doing calibrator observations and reductions, for example, which may well turn up problems.
  * Emil, in collaboration with Jim Caswell, to select some test fields - for repeated observations as the system implementation goes forward.
- * Vince to work with !MarkC on implementing a 'test version' of all the programs.
