Last quarter we had 8 posts!  Of which 6 were by Brian... this quarter we have 0 (so far) - (hint)

1. DPM support and DPM community

   There are two related but different questions; one is how we support
   DPM with less support from CERN et al, and the other how we are
   represented to the DPM "community."

   For the former, it is clear site admins should seek help within GridPP, so GridPP provides 1st and 2nd
   level support.  For the latter, it would be good to have more UK DPM sites (admins) represented in
   the community, so when there's a call, it is less likely that we will have no one present.

   And we're arguably not doing too badly; with GridPP providing 1st and 2nd level support already at
   least for the requests that we see, and with 2/3 of the initial DOME installations in GridPP.

   For DOME upgrade, read the recipe before you start cooking... there's quite a lot in the recipe, but
   it should asymptotically get easier.

2. hepsysman - any notes/topics/thoughts/followup?

3. Techy topics

   - Object stores are not filesystems, and supernumerary slashes tend to confuse the former more than the latter.
   - ATLAS TPC != WAN read/write.  The Learned and Scholarly Debate on Xroot vs Http occasionally heats up...
   - DPM IPv6 GridFTP could follow the relevant RFC but it has good reasons not to.
