= News

Nightlies failed after some Florido's commit, Anders looking into it. David was volunteered to give a talk at the NorduGrid conference. Playing around with ATLAS analysis jobs doing direct remote xrootd access, checking what fraction of files is read by jobs. Tomsk has money to collaborate with Oslo, some common project is brewing. Eric and Torre are pushing for ARC in the US. Oxana added ARC and NorduGrid to http://hepsoftware.org, would be nice to add aCT and ATLAS@Home there.


= Release

Aleksandr has code which stores proxy in file in parallel to the delegation store. Needs testing. Also plans to use sqlite instead of bdb. Will take few more days.

Switch to sqlite might not be transparent, as it may require packaging changes and configuration work. Sqlite3 dependency is not too bad, is pulled in by Python anyway and if it'll lead to getting rid of bdb, it's good. Configuration option to switch from bdb to sqlite will be added.

= Bugs

No new bugs
