On the gLite 3.2 stuff we've got a bunch of warnings, but only four
sites showing as 'critical' on the dashboard, all of which would
probably be fairly easily made to not do that:
ECDF: A classic SE in the gocdb and having a gLite 3.2 site BDII
Glasgow: gLite 3.2 site BDII
Jet: gLite 3.2 site BDII
Liverpool: A classic SE in the gocdb (though it seems to have gone now,
I'm assuming it was dropped some time earlier today?)

It is rather fuzzy. The latest information seems to be this EGI broadcast:
https://operations-portal.egi.eu/broadcast/archive/id/739
which states that all unsupported gLite 3.2 components (this includes the
site BDII and the Cream CE) must have been retired by the end of September,
so that would put those of us still running gLite Cream CEs in the middle
of our one month post deadline grace period. However, that broadcast does
refer back to an earlier one:
https://operations-portal.egi.eu/broadcast/archive/id/628
which gives the list of things having to be upgraded by the end of September
as:
"lcg-ce, site-BDII earlier than 3.2.10-1, all gLite 3.1 unsupported products"
which is not quite the same thing. Notably the security dashboard is showing
critical alerts for old Site BDIIs, warnings for old SEs, and nothing at all
for gLite 3.2 Cream CEs.
My plan for Oxford, and general recommendation, would be to get everything
gLite 3.2 (except the worker nodes), gone by the end of this month. I think
that's pretty much what everyone's actually already working to in practice
anyway.
