0.6.0 production over holiday by Fred Kral, SLAC and LBNL
- limited by availability of generator files, disk space
- a few crashes due to a bug in DCH, found and fixed
- backgd events in the tens of thousands run successfully
Becomes (with completing digitization dbio I/O) my top priority when I get back: get serious production going at SLAC and offsite
- remote sites like RAL and IN2P3 with people willing to participate early and help implement the system can get started with us setting things up right away
- Fred Kral, Ed Frank helping
- Propose phone conference of interested parties Mon Jan 29, 8:30am PST.
