Eric W. reports that he is starting work on a port of v9r13 to the FSSC build environment. For the packages/tools that are part of the FSSC builds this will mean that a larger variety of binary distributions will be available.
Late breaking: Jean has reported that hidden parameters have a surprising feature (or bug) in the Science Tools. At least in v9r13 default values for hidden parameters are read from the user's copy of the parameter file (if the user has a copy) rather than the system parameter file. He points out that the switch to toltype=ABS in gtlike (the default since v9r12) will not take place if the user already has a local copy of gtlike.par.
