== News

Nordugrid mirrors are being rebuilt after some bug-fixing. CI build on newest Ubuntus fail, probably because of changed metadata in the control-file.

No urgency in transition to multiple benchmarks, as HEPSCORE 22 will be renormalised to match HS06 and stay as a single benchmark (for now).

MAX IV is interested in using ARC, may be interesting for other synchrotron facilities. Tokens are a key feature. Local storages are unclear, a lightweight storage solution is needed. No much progress wrt tokens, which are used as new proxies for now. ESG is still in a bootstrap mode.

== Bugs

Nothing to report

== ARC7 timeline

Gitlab issue #122 documents the steps. Proper confirmation and testing is needed for the latest commits. A few feature requests will only be ready for 7.1, but these are not showstoppers. One may assume that the needed steps will be completed within 2 weeks. If so, an alpha release can be tagged on November 29 or December 6. Release in January 2023 is realistic.

== ARC6 release

An issue with checksum surfaced up, easy to fix, so a quick ARC6 bugfix release can be made, instead of waiting for ARC7. There are other fixes that can come along.

There are minutes attached to this event. Show them.
