perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andrew Lake <>]

Hi,

Our current goal is within the month (aiming tentatively for the first week 
in October). We will be doing one more release candidate later this week. The 
how is that will be the last candidate before the final release. I can't 100% 
guarantee that won't slip if some major bugs surprise us over the next couple 
weeks, but those are our current plans. 

Thanks,
Andy
