LHC First beam				        	mid November

Note that:

  • Software freeze date of end of September was considered reasonable by WLCG MB.

Disaster Management

Swine Flu (H1N1) is being handled in the Tier-1 Disaster Management System (downgraded to level 1).

Will probably enter the disk deployment problems as level 1.
