Allocation of new disk space

Here are the assignments (each area is ~1 TB):Physics group UNIX group Filesystem------------- ---------- ----------ewk cdfpewkd /cdf/data54/ewktop cdfptopd /cdf/data60/topexotics cdfpexod /cdf/data61/exoticqcd cdfpqcdd /cdf/data62/qcdbottom cdfpbotd /cdf/data63/bottom

The Physics Coordinator, Tony Liss, has indicated that a decision has been made on the division of disk among the physics groups.Glenn, please allocate an additional 1 TB to each of the five physics

CDF/D0 jet meeting

There will be a joint CDF/D0/theory jet meeting on Monday Dec. 16 from 9 AM-1 PM in One-West. We will take advantage of the presence that week of Zoltan Nagy to discuss evaluations of kT jet cross sections. In addition, we will finalize the changes to the mid-point jet algorithm and discuss the implications of these changes (led by Steve Ellis). The meeting will also be carried by live-streaming.
