Agreed! Also, Leif fixed the shared_ptr segfault bug. I have a couple of
extra fixes to put in, regarding the long-standing proper clean-up of
some singletons that couldn't be done until Leif fixed that shared_ptr
thing.

Are there any analyses to go in? The ATLAS track jet fragmentation study
is nearly ready, I think, so I am tempted to wait for that. Any other
experiments? There was a nice-looking CMS jet structure analysis shown
at SM at LHC which I would love to have, if we can get anyone to implement
it. Can you follow that up as "CMS contact", Hendrik?

I've had no time to work on YODA development in the last couple of
months -- too much ATLAS urgency. I might book a train to Durham for a
couple of days this month, if that's ok, or perhaps several of us will
be at Les Houches and could spare a couple of days to do Rivet/YODA work?
