• enhanced the distribution system to deal with the new "static sky" stage.
• changed psphotStack to save the configuration in a file. This is needed for distribution processing
• enhanced dvo to allow mextract to return the extrernal image id that corresponds to a given measurement. This will enable users to more easily create postage stamp requests based on data extracted from DVO.
• changed distribution of background restored data to include the variance images from the original chip and warp runs. The M31 team needs these images.
• wrote and executed scripts to bundle up the missing variance images for data distributed prior to the work discussed in the last item.
• various other bug fixes.
• looked into problem of streaky stacks reported by a user. The problem is a race condition in our processing. Destreak does not wait for nightly stacks to be completed.
• 1 day vacation, 1 day state holiday
