Hi Travis, we have made some good progress. The dropbox is downloading and it has about 500k files. It is very slow to download but is moving along. We also are testing the smart download and it is going well. We will want to get some feedback from you on that next time we meet.

Hey Dieneke,
I haven't been able to put this together yet, and in fact, I need to postpone our meetings until the beginning of August. We've had to pivot our priorities and my attention needs to be elsewhere until August.
I apologize for this, but let's resume the meeting in August.
Please let me know if you have any questions/comments/concerns.

Hey Dieneke,
I don't have that information yet. The reason I haven't addressed it yet is because we're still dealing with some server issues on our end. Our IT Department recently migrated our Mac server (the one that holds these assets) to a PC server. However, we've found a lot of corrupt or missing directories that they are having to fix. My direct supervisor asked me to not spend any time on our DAM until this is done, and unfortunately I don't have an ETA for when our IT Department will finalize the recovery. To put it into perspective, we've been waiting 3-4 months already.
At this point, we're using EnterMedia as a search engine mostly. We search for the files, and then revert to our server to access them. This works well for us right now. However, once our new server is up and running, that's when we'll want to hit the ground running re-organizing our assets. That is when these advancements will be useful.
It might be better to hold off meeting until our IT department has finished their recovery? I want to avoid us doing any development work until our server is back up, reliable, and ready to be sorted through.
