	09/10/2015			H	H		AppScan are taking long periods of time to complete. For Term browser, the minimum has been 5 days.	We are working on both the code base and configuration of the scan to try to improve performance. We are also looking at open source code scanners that could possibly be used ahead of the AppScan to at least limit the number appscans required.

Opened Date	Description	Impact	Status
7/17/2014	Deployment of software, even small upgrades, have been a lengthy process.	This especially affects smaller releases in which there are security or bug fixes.	The Agile practices migration have been put on hold for now.
09/10/2014	Getting the environment in place for the Mayo trip to NCI.	Need to get each of the environment (DEV,QA,Stage) in place before the Mayo trip on September 22nd. We are currently one week behind. The impact is that the Mayo developer will be onsite to work on the deployments and the tiers will not be in place.	Currently we only have the DEV environment setup for the LexEVS API>
