• CMT and path_remove

  Issue discovered by Jim. Every CMT path_append requirements file statement must be preceded with a path_remove, so that setup can be run multiple times without the path environment variables growing, to assure that an older version is replaced, and to remove redundant duplicates. This is not done, or done improperly, in  cfitsio, XMLEXT,  STpolicy, and  perhaps GlastPolicy.
   

• Release Manager 
  • Currently hung up, 5 builds in progress: did Navid's notification work?
  • New tracked package: EngineeringModel
     

    RM tracked checkout packages: EngineeringModel GlastRelease ScienceTools

    Note that it does not have a LATEST. Currently it mixes the functionality of a checkout package and building the applications, but the latter will be split off. (Richard, Heather)

• InstallArea status (Traudl) -- waiting for CMT v1r16 to be fixed, update of Gaudi. GlastPolicy v6 issue resolved.

• GlastRelease (Gleam) 
  • Nothing to report
• Science Tools
  • Release v4r0 now has st_app, tip, sane.
