3. Software development:
   1. V9.10 release candidate is running on csep-cert since 2009/09/12 with latest release candidate since 2009/09/18
   2. Masha will create another release candidate today to include:
      • Re-compute cumulative results that use probability function - stand-alone functionality
      • John's latest changes to the results web viewer
   3. SVN access to new CSEP contributors:
      • Ask all participating SCEC Testing Center modelers if it's OK to distribute their codes
      • John will check if wildcards are allowed for SVN's denyPermissions
      • Meanwhile Masha will send James generic CSEP distribution
4. Hardware:
   1. John will start copying data from csep-op to new server
      • Can replace after the V9.10 release is out
   2. csep-cert
      • CSEPWebTest.py is not part of nightly build - some issues connecting to the web server
        1. John is looking at the problem, but most likely won't make it into V9.10.0
        2. Masha suggested to invoke the tests manually once V9.10 is installed on csep-op
