PHEW!</div><br><div>I'm also committed to getting a public v3 release by the end of the month, so please hold me to that. (Help with it is 200% welcome, of course...)</div><br><div>So things are approximately on track for our next Rivet monthly meeting, at the start of September. Looking at my calendar, I suggest Monday 3 September, which is the first day of the MCnet Computing School but I'm sure there will be a suitable time. Can you let me know your restrictions on that day (and the following ones, if necessary)? Thanks.</div><br><div>Now a bit of background/minutes from the last meeting:</div><br><div>The main thing to be discussed at that is devising a concrete plan, with assigned tasks, for resyncing Rivet's ref data collection with HepData. As a reminder, Holger was going to provide his "old" Rivet/HD comparison scripts, and Christian & Louie were going to start building some notes (from the cmp script output?) on the known origins of discrepancies, e.g. where Rivet ref data was on-purpose submitted with different plot content. The triage process is most likely to involve focusing first on trivial cases where the dataset ID codes are different but semantically the same; then getting into the (much fewer?) more complex cases where the datasets actually have different meanings and maybe we need to port back improvements into HD with experiment approval.</div><br><div>I was also tasked with moving the Rivet codebase to BitBucket, once the two releases are done. We already have a group there, with a tentative project for the Rivet3 paper (ACTION: Jon!) and I hope this will not be too tough. We also need to find a new home for the mailing lists -- I had hoped that Jira and Confluence, from the same company, would equally offer free academic licenses, but they "only" give a 50% discount and the price explodes above 10 users. I will investigate whether we can use CERN's Jira, and/or other systems, but their mailing list system is sufficiently crap that I regard that as the option of last resort!</div><br><div>Andy</div><br><div><div><div><div><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2"><div style="padding-bottom:15px"><div><strong>Dr Andy Buckley, Senior Lecturer / Royal Society University Research Fellow</strong></div><div>Particle Physics Experiment Group, University of Glasgow</div></div></td></tr><tr><td style="vertical-align:top"></td><td><div style="font-size:0.9em;white-space:nowrap;border-left:2px solid gray;margin-left:20px;padding-left:20px"><div><div></div><div></div></div></div></td></tr></tbody></table></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote></div></blockquote>
