James has imported APE to replace PIL in the hoops package. It is in the LATEST builds of the Science Tools. Jim has reported a couple of bugs to James; one of them relates to why the unit test in the sane package has started failing.
Source Catalog
Met this week and covered a number of interesting topics. Jean gave an update on the comparison of the source detection algorithms, incorporating results from an improved PGwave algorithm. He also discussed his investigation of sources that the source detection algorithms find but the catalog pipeline discarded - evidence that another iteration step is needed in the catalog analysis. Toby gave a detailed update on what is new with pointfind and on development directions in the near future. He is also starting to generate the true source list from the sky model for the Big Run. This is a thankless task - so thank him.
