Needs & future • The « External Software Service » tightly depends on the projects needs • We need to know your point of view as we are on the way building up a new service • Our own vision for Q1 is: • Maximum of external software available in time • Full web site • Better knowledge of the projects’ needs • To go in the same direction, we need to keep permanent interaction and a contact person is the clearest way. Eric Poinsignon - External Software Service
Collaboration • Problems could be • unavailability of a product (platform, version) • Not installable by us alone (time, skills) • Collaboration • Users are involved in this service: they help in installing the software. • This is working very well. • Thanks to all the people helping us! • Conclusion • Contact us, our priorities are public and we will agree them with the users. • Contact • http://spi.cern.ch/extsoft/ Eric Poinsignon - External Software Service
