== News

Accounting is stuck because GGUS ticket to APEL fell silent. LDMX pilot idea will go ahead. Some ARGUS problems were discovered, but it is not a showstopper. Re-packaging is needed for LCMAPS, and will continue as planned. ARC builds for EPEL8 exist. BDII was ported to Python3. 

EuroHPC and BestForHEP (if successful) and an Oslo center for data science could provide some developer-power, but likely not any time soon.

Link to Wiki will be removed. GGUS #143196 need sto be addressed: a link to EGI procedures is needed.

People don't like GitLab or NorduGrid Wiki, so the logistics, testing and other auxilliary info will be a part of documentation.

Release info on the web is still outdated, to be fixed.

Post-HEPiX ARC tutorial in Amsterdam - Andrii would prefer to make it remote. David might be able to go.


== Release 6.3

Since APEL is delayed, there might not be enough changes to have a release. Session directory fix was addressing a rather special case, not really a critical one. One week might be enough to get feedback from APEL, but with testing the delay will be more like 2 weeks. Optimistically it can be October 7. Conclusion: shift the release date from October 1 to October 7. If accounting is ready, then it's in, otherwise it will be a rather minor release.


== Bugs

Nothing to discuss.
