Release planning, tests and certification

Release planning:

  • the list of feature request is already closed
  • Last PRs in the pipeline (dirac-install++ and ProductionSystem) can probably be merged

Certification process: 

• v7r0 certification:
  • certification instance to update

Weekly development(s) focus

Discussion on DIRAC platforms and matching. Federico will look into possibly rethink how it's done. OSCompatibility section can maybe be removed in favor of using tags, which is a more generic mechanism.
