  No: we have to possibility to have a new release around the middle of May, so we can pick up a new LCGCMT at that moment.
• gcc 4.3.5 not yet available in the distcc cluster
• Problems with the build of POOL in the LCG nightlies (may be due to the switch from LCGCVS to CVS)
• Marco Ca.: a person from Rostock will join the core software group. He will not be full time at CERN except for two month starting from Tuesday. The initial duties will be:
  • release shifts
  • support for nightly builds and tag collector

Round Table

Karol

• Coverity builds are running and they appear in the summary web page, but there have been failures today (triggered by the build problem with POOL).
• Fixed the issue with the warnings that where not ignored (only the ignore strings were used and not the regular expressions).
• A problem with Erasmus was reported, but actually it was due to a conflict with the name of the packages (two packages with the same name in different hats).
