15 mins	Aspects updates for Sumac	@Ty Hob	Initial tickets for the expected work are here: Data Working Group • openedx FC in flight with EduNEXT to complete the work Early draft mock-up for the new “Compare Course” dashboard is on the Aspects beta server here, if you need access let me know Small scope to give more time for testing / performance regression testing We expect to fit in Superset 4.1 and the newest ClickHouse LTS if they are available and the upgrade paths aren’t too difficult Larger scope with an earlier start intended for Teak
5 min	Aspects v1.1 release	@Ty Hob	A bug fix / minor feature release landed yesterday with some important bug fixes found as @Sara Burns added unit tests to dbt models: bug: Problem ID macro not correct · Issue #115 · openedx/aspects-dbt bug: Incorrect responses being ignored · Issue #114 · openedx/aspects-dbt Performance: Remove unused models, reduce memory usage by bmtcril · Pull Request #111 · openedx/aspects-dbt Adds (optional, off by default) ability to create and view dbt docs inside your environment, so you can document and view your custom models and dashboards in context with the rest of Aspects (docs to follow). More bug fixes are ongoing, fixes to ClickHouse Cluster support landed this morning and should be released soon, hopefully with better localization support. Doc for running Aspects without Tutor is up for review. You can see why we don’t recommend it.
