================================================== Yves Perrin + Actions done and progress - Savannah  . approved several new projects  . helped Guenter Grein to complete the GGUS -> Savannah 'bridge'  . implemented a cronjob script for Louis Poncet/ gLite MDW to    retrieve selected sets of bugs at regular intervals to ease    their bug monitoring. - Drupal  . created a template instance + recipe to create an instance  . created 8 instances  . updated to Drupal 6.13  . put in a place a daily backup rotating on a month  . installed a cronjob to check availability of updates for    a single instance - Other  . followed Juha Hollanti for his 'stage' at CERN. He installed    Canoo Webtest and developed the basic framework so that we can    take over and implement Savannah test sequences / full test suite    as required. + Next actions  . implement cronjob for Drupal updates for all instances  . configure Drupal to automatically give roles/rights to people    who are member od an e-group (with Carlos)  . find a way to supress/change the Savannah 'Get support' link that    some people keep using instead of their project support requests.  . follow up on Juha's work (cronjob script validating a set of tracker    operations, investigate the possibility to use Canoo webtest to    automate the update of a Drupal multiple site system) ================================================== Ana Gaspar + Actions done - Last two weeks at CSC - New partition available for the builds on pcphsft60vm. - Upgraded tbroadcast - Solving problems on windows (both vc7 and vc9) for slot test2 - Still writing the paper ================================================== Stefan Roiser + Actions done - Preparation of opengrok source code cross referencing tool in a test instance http://cern.ch/test-lcg-opengrok and in a production instance http://cern.ch/project-lcg-source.

LHC experiments are also interested. - Preparation of mathlib and roofit from the latest ROOT 5.24 patches branch against the current 5.22 production version. The build instructions are part of LCGCMT and the build and deployment process works. We are waiting for confirmation of one last bug fix in roostats before producing the installations in afs. - LCG Configuration 56c has been released. It contains bug fixes for all AA projects.
