h2. Notes from the 4PM Meeting and Additional Comments.
Nothing
h2. Notes from Observers
1. A minor point: The quick reduce PSF tab has two right hand bars which show FWHM and Ellipticities using some filters. However, those color codes don't match with the original plots. E.g. u-filter is shown as 'green' but it should be 'blue' Nothing
2. Another minor point: Some discrepancies between RASICAM on web server (http://rasicam.ctio.noao.edu/RASICAMWebService/static/RASICAMwebService.html) and when using the command rasicam.sh in the terminal, especially, when plotting the position of the Blanco field of view. I checked whether it is the problem with the UT time, but it doesn't.
