Background
In July 2010, at the time of the annual DELPH-IN Summit (see the ParisTop page for background), a new tagged release of the LOGON infrastructure (see the LogonTop page for details) is being made available. This page documents (some of) the updates and extensions provided in this snapshot.
Release Schedule
The proposed schedule is to freeze development on August 16, and complete general availability by August 31. Module developers who want to contribute updates of their components in the LOGON tree, please contact Stephan Oepen. In the last two weeks of August, we will depend on component developers to assist in testing various functionalities.
