from Chuck: Still working on the pyLikelihood Tutorial, and hit a
rough spot with the BinnedAnalysis. Currently, I'm rerunning the
prerequisite Science Tools, using 6mos of data instead of one day in
an effort to get an acceptable fit. Liz Hays is trying to get binned
analysis working with the FSSC tools, and we're exchanging
information. She suggested that I compute my exposure map cube using
bin energy EDGE instead of CENTER, and, while it resolved a problem I
was experiencing, it did not improve the fit. Liz also reports that
the BinnedAnalysis does not perform well if the bins are starved for
data.

Richard: iLat data access broke due to building in the (old) line-mode
astroserver client. Need to track down Gino/Andrea to update.
GR Status
...
Richard: Pass6 ToT bug fix reprocessing had a problem. (This is a test
of ~1 months data to verify the effect of the ToT fix prior to public
data release.)
...
Heather: New Science Tool build awaiting outstanding issue resolution...

Navid: ST v9r15p4 rebuild complete, but not yet tested. (An SCons
issue prevented the previous attempt from succeeding.)
Tag collector nearly complete. Still needs improvements to user
interface. Expect to finish up soon.

Some issues over the past week with tagging (container packages),
should now be fixed.
Joanne away for one more week. Still laundry list of things to do.
