dunetpc v08_09_00 is our current release; larsoft v08_10_00 was made available yesterday. Gavin Davies cleaned up old dunetpc versions on CVMFS with a list generated by Tom. The criterion chosen was whether the particular version/flavor/qualifier set up, and if the setup had errors, it was listed for deletion. The list was inspected against lists of versions used for MC samples and data processing. Most were very old, but one version that was used for MCC10 had its larsoft version deleted. Tom checked that the MCC10 files are readable with new versions of dunetpc/larsoft.
We had an interesting presentation from Chris Jones of CMS about transitioning to GitHub and a pull request model. LArSoft would need release managers and code reviewers to make this work -- the reviewers may need to come from the experiments. The tools look easy enough to use.
Several LArSoft stakeholders would like to migrate to GENIE V3, but DUNE would like to stick with GENIE V2.12.10c for the TDR (physics coordinators weighed in).
dune_oslibs needs a bit of maintenance. v1_1_0 was an abortive attempt to satisfy slf7.5 needs but is no longer needed and perhaps should be deleted. It may work with earlier point releases of sl7 but it hasn't been tested. One flavor seems enough for all the slf6 point releases. With help from Lynn, we were able to make a slf7.5-specific flavor. The general SL7 flavor sets up for every SL7 except SL7.5 and so it works, but once SL7.6 comes out it'll break. Same for new mac flavors, but those are easy to add as their directories are empty. Other collaborations are interested in a similar product. Herb had asked if we had an automated test suite which identifies libraries that need to be added. Vito tells me when CI tests fail on remote sites and has been very helpful in telling me which libraries are missing and then I add them by hand and update CVMFS. I don't cut new releases, just add flavors by hand. We took the setup out of setup_dune.sh and added it as a dependence to dunetpc. So people running jobs with older versions of dunetpc (v7.x) won't get dune_oslibs set up automatically.
Iceberg tools are being developed.
