== News
There's going to be a new ARC site in UAE, help is solicited.
New tag for the GTK with TLS1.3 is out.
SLURM back-end scripts are being worked on. A perl-in-line-Python package needs a new maintainer and some work to be able to be built on the latest RedHat.
Sites upgrade to AMS-based accounting initially generated several GGUS tickets, but they got dradually resolved.
Debian 11 is out.
== Release
Would be nice to have a regular release soon (in 2 weeks or so). The slow-down with data staging needs a follow-up, as it is unclear whether it was fixed. Also keep an eye on #4024 (major).
== Bugs
* 4024 is labeled as major, so might need to be solved before the release (gsiftp submission problems)
== AOB
Client needs some attention, as it diverges more and more. IT in various universities is getting rather aggressive, which makes it increasingly difficult to have in-house developers. A native Python client might be a good idea (REST-only).
