================================================== Yves Perrin + Actions done and progress - Savannah:  . helped users with registration / lost password  . approved new projects  . implemented a cronjob to supply the EGEE SA1 Deployment project    with an updated copy of their savannah items every hour. - Hypernews:  . helped users to register to LCGAA HN  . created one new forum for Atlas - iterated with people who did not follow CERN naming rules when  creating web sites - modified the LCGCMT dynamic web pages script to generate a more  convenient hompage (Pere and Stefan suggestions). The new page  allows scrolling through configurations snapshots to select the  configurations to compare as well as sorting and ordering package  lists by clicking on the column headers. + Next actions - contact Stephen Haywood to learn about Atlas plans concerning HN - finalize the LCGCMT dynamic web pages with Stefan - complete Savannah mods for Kuba ================================================== Stefan + Actions done - Testing opengrok - a source code cross referencing tool - as a replacement for lxr. IT has adapted their webservices to allow this java application to use afs space where we would like to put our data - Discussion with IT about the rpm packaging of ROOT and Geant4. At the moment there are no plans to do install a service for these projects to be packaged as rpms. - The memory ordered for the Mac servers has not arrived yet, Finance has contacted directly the enterprise to ask for the current status of the delivery - Investigated the possibility to use readline as part of the Mac OSX python distribution. The Mac OSX natively provided readline is broken thus we will need to distribute the package separately to allow its proper usage. + Next actions - Finalize the testing of opengrok with IT provided servers - Find a way how to distribute python with readline on Mac osx - Finish VC9 ports for the LCG/AA stack ==================================================
