Science Tools Post-Launch- What is the release date for the Science Tools from the GSSC (L + 60 days + 6 months?)
- Can we (please) keep the releases tied to a specific Science Tools build?
- Do we need to get formal about potential additions to the Standard Analysis Environment?

What about contributed software - within the LAT team and at the GSSC? How do we decide what to build/distribute with the Science Tools? \[probably hard to answer in the abstract] |

- From Eric W.: "As far as the beta test goes, we're releasing a new version of the tools today that have been ported to the HEADAS environment on OS X for Intel and PowerPC Macs, and 64-but Linux. We're still based on v9r4p1, but I am getting ready to start porting v9r5 to the HEADAS environment."
March 26, 2008News incl. Beta Test- Andrea is preparing descriptions of the production of pointing/livetime histories (FT2) in the L1 pipeline, for a technical review next week (tentatively planned for Thursday); this will also relate to how Gleam gets the position and attitude information provided by the spacecraft

Feb 13, 2008NewsBill presented the Pass 6 analysis last week at the workshop in Bari. Riccardo also presented improvements to the energy assignment for events. These are exciting developments for the IRFs (and also for background rejection). These will be topics for the meeting of the IRF Working Group tomorrow. LAT data productsBaselining the ICD and File Format Documents, and attempting to sign off requirements (Ground System Requirements or LAT Level 3) related to product generation and delivery were intense efforts leading up to the Flight Operations Review last week. The ICD and FFD are baselined, thanks to David's stamina. The data products generated by the L1 pipeline (LS-001, -002, and -005) did not quite meet the expectations of the ingest system at the GSSC. Some tweaking at least is needed, and will result in Rev. A of the FFD. At this time, I don't know how the process will work for making updates to the FFD.

Jan 16, 2008NewsNews goes here. You might be interested to look at Pat's posting on UIDL to the User Interface mailing list. The most-current news regarding the Big Run is the Big Run Checklist; it includes a recently-updated timeline that forecasts the availability of the 1-year run data in ~mid-April.
