Announcements

  • New release, sim-recon-2010-07-28. Mark mentioned the [???new release], announced almost two weeks ago. No comments on usability one way or another (no news = good news?).
  • b1pi analysis in cron job. Mark showed the plots that are now produced automatically on a weekly basis. They show momentum distributions for positive pions, negative pions, protons and photons as well as angular distributions for the the same set of particles in b_{1}\pi events. Both the script to do the reconstruction and the ROOT macro to make the plots are from David. Mark asked whether there was sentiment for mailing out the plots to the collaboration for review regularly; there was not. Does not mean that he won't do it anyway.

Review of minutes from the last meeting
