Hi Jeremy,
On May 5th, I asked the ATLAS sw manager for it to be installed. He
responded that he would try to do it oce the ATLAS RLS was back up - it
was down that day. Nothing happened yet, I am still waiting. In fact, this
just reminded me to ask again.
I don't want to complain about the ATLAS sw mgr personally, I am sure he
is getting around to it as quickly as he can. But I would like to make the
observation that LHCb software seems to start running of its own accord
without me prompting anyone. I have a personal interest in ATLAS so I
don't mind requesting the software installation, but I thought the model
was such that I shouldn't have to ask?
Simon
PS Sorry, I seem to be doing nothing but complain today :-)
