Ilya has obtained the hybrid version of simulation/reconstruction code and will work on implementing the island code in this context. Next step is to make a factory for reconstruction of FCALI/II hits using reconstruction algorithm.
- Web page with some details about Ilya's code
L. Gan gave a brief update about the insert.
- A 60x60 cm^2 insert as a starting point appears to already part of the plan (radiation hardness)
- Liping looked at effect of background for hybrid in the η→π0γγ channel due to η→3π0 as a function of insert size.
  - Eγ=9-11.7 GeV; 3σ cuts for invariant mass and ΔE; parametrized position resolutions for lead glass and lead tungstate
  - FOM=S/sqrt(B) increases with insert size: 120x120 cm^2 is about 2.5 times better than 60x60 cm^2
