[LHAPDF-announce] New LHAPDF6 data for METAPDF, and NNPDF3.0 dataset updates

[Andy Buckley]

Dear LHAPDF users,

We are very pleased to announce the public release of LHAPDF6 data files
for the METAPDF1.0 sets. These are available for download via the
"lhapdf" command-line tool or at
https://www.hepforge.org/archive/lhapdf/pdfsets/6.1/ , or for direct use
from /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/lhapdfsets/current/ or (shortly)
/cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/external/lhapdfsets/current/

At the same time we would like to draw your attention to bugfix updates
to several NNPDF3.0 NLO and NNLO sets. These updates primarily fix
alpha_s metadata and affect the following sets:

NNPDF30_nlo_as_0115_nf_3
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0115_nf_4
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0117 2
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0117_nf_3
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0117_nf_4
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0119 2
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0119_nf_3
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0119_nf_4
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0121_nf_3
NNPDF30_nlo_as_0121_nf_4
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0115_nf_4
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0117_nf_3
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0117_nf_4
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0119_nf_3
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0119_nf_4
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0115_nf_3
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0121_nf_3
NNPDF30_nnlo_as_0121_nf_4

Finally, just a quick mention that we hope to release LHAPDF 6.1.5
before the Christmas holidays -- there are a variety of small issues
that we have been meaning to deal with, in particular a bug that is
blocking release of the JR14 PDF sets. Apologies to would-be users for
the delay!

Best wishes,
The LHAPDF team
