Maintenance will be performed on git.ligo.org, containers.ligo.org, and docs.ligo.org on Tuesday 29 April 2025 starting at approximately 9am PDT. It is expected to take around 30 minutes and there will be several periods of downtime throughout the maintenance. We will be switching the authentication mechanism to use the system that we will be using with the new instance, it will still be utilizing the Federation Proxy but the underlying communication method will be changing. From the user perspective this should be the same as it currently is and you should not notice any differences. However there may be issues that we have not anticipated nor encountered during testing. If you have any comments, questions, or concerns please add them to the helpdesk. In addition we will also be installing the latest security update.
* revert reverts 2878f98fea97ad1148f1f847b7a2d3c827227dfb 10e1a0c7881eba52387706474ca659c46ee2efc1 8b2089258581050bf9e7c5b0b5b456b2da345bde 026505ac1dfe0ce6bd67347da47e69efa1c010ce and test and make them work.
* streamthinca/thinca. ligolw_thinca requires sngl_inspiral objects with a .get_effective_snr() method. we are now the only users of ligolw_thinca, and we don't use effective snr, so strip all that stuff out of ligolw_thinca, then move the remaining basic access methods to the C code in pylal so that ligolw_thinca can work with the bare pylal type, *then* remove the sngl_inspiral row object duplication loop from streamthinca so that we only ever work with the original triggers from the pipeline and never (possibly incomplete) copies of them. this will fix the "mchirp=0" bug in the gracedb uploads.
* Audit all import statements: there's a lot of useless imports, especially in gstlal-inspiral/bin/
* Upload segment lists with events; this might mean keeping track of "old" segments in the online jobs (for the previous 4 hours to cover boundary effects)
