== News

There are only 6 old ARC sites in EGI left, others upgraded. Builds for Fedora/Debian are made. REST testing with aCT revealed a couple of problems, that are getting fixed. Vega HPC pushes scalability to the limits, performance gets worse when there are problems with datastaging, because of heavy load, epecially with EMI-ES. More details will be presented at the NDGF-T1 AHM and ARC workshop later. Tokens tests with REST interface are successful. Tokens hackathon is scheduled on June 3 and 4, afternoons (14:30 - 17:30 CEST). Cleanup of scratchdir (and its documentation) is still work in progress. A use case for job aggregation/clustering comes up, especially with newer systems than process jobs very fast (several grid jobs should be aggregated as a single batch job).

== Bugs

Some small progress with bugfixing. Still 12 bugs in NEW state, getting old.

== Release

Testing procedure for new APEL protocol will be prepared soon. Slovenian ad Swiss sites are good candidates for testing. So transition to the new protocol will be probably a bit delayed.
