	Mayo/Jason	We have run into multiple issues where the performance on the DEV tier has be a problem due to Mayo not being able to replicate the slow points due to the drastic difference in DEV resources.

This AI will be closed.

LexEVS 6.2	The DEV server is now up and running. Still having some issues getting the data from the API. It looks like there was an issue copying the database over. The CTS2 and URI Resolver containers still need to be created. The PTE have been submitted and the systems team is working on it now. Making preparations for Mayo's trip to NCI. The trip is now scheduled for September 22nd.

Term Browser	Continued work of the 2.6 release items. The containers are still being worked on for the new development environment. The container has been created but we are waiting on the AntHillPro setup. We will be putting in an appscan request once the deployment is completed.
