* Software:
5
** TOF:
6
*** one PMT channel with hole in the ADC distribution -- needs to be blacklisted & accounted for in the reconstruction
7 3 Rajaram, Durga
*** Calibrations need to be improved & finalized to try improve efficiency especially for TOF2
8
**** VP having some issues, DR to interface with him
9 1 Rajaram, Durga
*** TOF review has been on hiatus, to resume
10
11
** Tracker:
12
*** Geometry description issue
13
*** Some evidence (?) that the tracker is misaligned for the scattering run period
14
15
** EMR
16
*** bug fix: chi2 calculation
17
*** bug fix: polystyrene material definition
18
19
** Geometry:
20
*** LH2 window material is incorrect in production geometries -- fix in hand
21
*** Tracker glue not correctly defined in tracker geometry -- CR has tuned the density
22
*** DR to push fixes to all Step IV production geometries
23
*** Standing: description of diffuser aperture & support materials
24
25
** MC
26
*** bug fix: we were not seeing delta electrons due to a bug -- fixed in MAUS trunk
27
*** bug fix: tracker channel/calibration look up was incorrect in MC digitizer -- fixed in trunk
28
29
* Processing:
30
**  Plan: 
31
*** make a new release
32
*** push corrected geometries
33
*** run MC production
34
*** reprocess data
35
36
* Computing:
37
** MLCR decomissioning (PF)
38
*** Equipment & services to be migrated
39
**** Target: basically done (tested and training to be finalized)
40
**** CDB: failover next week. One more week for the PPD slave in order to be independent from the MLCR.
41
**** Backups on GRID: tarballs ready for the Archivist to be moved
42
**** Switch off: D1 survey next week before turning most of the machines off and final Archiver tarball. PF waiting for survey before turning off IOCs and machines.
43
*** Computing equipment to be returned
44
**** QPS computer
45
**** Geneva computers -- onrec machines being used for local processing, so we'd like to hold on to them as long as possible

* Staffing
48
** HN's grid roles: agreed that PK + student/Brunel person will take over from Henry
49
** DM says he will be able to continue supporting GRID productions/processing & if support needed he can lean on Mihailo

** (Finally) revised draft sent to KL, PF
