The current release of the Science Tools is now *v9r12*.  Here are the package [differences from v9r11|https://www.slac.stanford.edu/www-glast-dev/cgi/releaseDiff?sessionId=f2456a99a4d99dba59c3fa03cc71cca5&cpId=20370&prevCpid=20124].  As Jim summarizes it, the new release includes updates to the pulsar tools, and the new P6_V4 & P6_V5 IRFs, and the corrected energy dispersions for P6_V\[3-5].  See Riccardo's [DC2:Summary of response function sets].  

Note that the P6_V4 and P6_V5 IRFs have the azimuthal variation of the effective area, although *gtltcube* is not yet tabulating azimuthal dependence of livetime accumulationsarea; Jim reminds me that gtltcube can now tabulate the azimuthal dependence of the livetime accumulation with the command-line parameter phibins, which defaults to 0. I'm not aware of studies yet of the effect of accounting for azimuthal variations on the likelihood analysis of sources.

Eric W. reports that the FSSC is about to start porting v9r12 to the build system at the FSSC.
