Present: Oodles of people, some of them probably left over from the previous meeting, but definitely including all the regulars except Richard, off reviewing in Chicago.
work on proposed binary release. Karl and Alex can see their way to package up binaries for unix systems. Are there any volunteers familiar with the relevant Windows tools to make a trivially installable Windows version?
New CVS digest list is available thanks to Pat. Get all the information about who did what in one daily message rather than as a constant dribble
pdrApp v7r2 is available.Main impetus was to incorporate a small fix to flux to avoid crashes related to xml handling.
CMT v1r10 has a new patch "improvement" which changes behavior VCMT depends upon. A possible way out is being tested.
If we move to Gaudi v8r1 we could also move to a later version of gcc (however this might entail building our own Xerces binaries for Linux rather than using the ones supplied by Apache).
There has been plenty of activity on the G4Generator package this week. See Riccardo's write-up for the full story on what has been done and what is still needed.
Toby got a the Gismo simulation-via-detModel-visitor up and running to the point of generating thousands of events (see picture). So far, so good, but we really need the spacecraft and thermal blanket in the geometry description.
Ever leery of the hand-written xml geometry description, Joanne is working on a detModel standalone application which checks for overlaps and perhaps has found some.
Tracker Reorganization: (Tracy) Tracker Recon incorporates new track fitting using Bill Atwood's erro matrix extrapolation. The new fitting has somewhat different output than the old, so packages using the fitter output will need some revision.
