GlastRelease: Finally really released! See Toby's status page for more information and the burgeoning GlastRelease User Guide.
GlastRelease tag requests continue to be used manually; we expect to evolve to a more sophisticated system. ATLAS has a "tag collector" but it's not clear to most of us what that involves since documentation is not publicly available; Toby and Traudl have seen it.
Nightly builds: (Alex) Should be online tonight for GlastRelease. Nightly build includes
any new tags of packages in GlastRelease
head of GlastRelease
heads of packages in GlastRelease (against head of GlastRelease)
new tags for packages not (yet) in GlastRelease
External libraries: (Alex) Now include cfitsio and MySQL (client side). MySQL still needs to be added to the IExternal container.
System tests: (Karl) Work with Gleam v4r1. Have been holding off running them with GlastRelease until the latter settled down. Other than a couple of known small and fixable glitches, everything should now be in order to let them loose on GlastRelease.
GlastRelease versioning: (Heather) Leon mentioned that the tarball for the full distribution of the external libraries on windows was named full_dist_v0r2. However, GlastRelease is now v0r3. What's the deal? Heather asked how to name these files so as to maximize their applicability to versions of GlastRelease. Toby stated that the version of GlastRelease will be incremented due to infrastructure modifications - including changes in external libraries. So, the tarballs will be named using the version of GlastRelease, not including any revision or patches. The two full_dist tarballs have already been renamed to conform.
Calibration infrastructure: (Joanne) The toy example using a minimal calibration data class with XML as persistent format runs on both Linux and Windows. The output demonstrates that calibration data can be fetched and will be updated as needed when the event time wanders outside the validity interval of the in-memory instance. However the to-do list is long. One high-priority item to be investigated before making the new packages part of GlastRelease is whether the current distribution of classes and interfaces among the three packages will allow subsystems to develop their calibration classes without colliding with each other.
CalRecon status: (Richard) There has been discussion both in the CAL and TKR groups on first thoughts on an iterative recon. And more discussion in the CAL on what CalRecon needs to do. A wrinkle is that it would apply different corrections for gammas and charged particles. A first diagram of a new CalRecon was shown last Friday - it's sure to evolve! This will also affect how the TDS changes to accomodate Tool-ified components.
News: (Richard)
A Lehmann mini-review, somewhat more comprehensive than originally planned, will take place at the end of this month. Richard has assembled some slides representing SAS.
Some notes from the LHC review will be available shortly.
The Dan Flath hire is closer, but not yet official.
