VDT 1.8.1 released

VDT 1.8.1 was released this week. Major changes: many bug fixes and Mac OS X support for clients. Details

VDT 1.8.1 update plans

We are planning an update to VDT within a week or so. Major items:

• Fix glexec (current version doesn't work)
• Fix SGE job manager (current version doesn't work with WS GRAM)
• Add TclGlobus-Client (requested by LIGO)
• Tweaks to RSV (allow testing of multiple sites)
• Maybe stunnel for encrypting syslog-ng communication. (May be in later release, depending on difficulty.

Next stable release of the VDT

Come one, come all--tell us what you want in the next major stable release of the VDT! Please note that the development time for the next stable release may be quite short (release in December/January), so our list of goals must be particularly well-focused and not too large. A couple of likely possibilities:

• Support for new platforms: CentOS 5, Debian 4 (Etch), AIX 5.3
• Things requested by you!

Please let us know what you want soon. Contact us during VDT Office Hours or by email.
