+gstlal-calibration (1.2.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+  * Bug fixes to EPICS match checks in CALIB_STATE_VECTOR
+  * Generalized to handle optical spring or antispring in SRC
+  * No longer need to provide expected f_s, f_cc, and src_Q in config file
+  * Noise subtraction gate channel and filter clock channel can now be the
+    same
+  * Remove use of small random number as default in parts of noise subtraction
+    to avoid not having exact reproducibility
