1. Task Meetings

There were no formal task meetings held this quarter. Many internal team meetings and one-to-ones with users, sites, and RIPs.

2. Main Achievements

APEL Migrated  90% of the production/certified sites (excluding those that we know are not using their own accounting solution)  to ActiveMQ APEL publishing. Of the 10% left, only 4% are sites which were previously using RGMA, the other 6% are sites that have never published.

Migrated the APEL documentation from the old goc wiki to the EGI wiki (https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/APEL). 

New ActiveMQ STOMP consumer ready in pre-production for external testing. Currently working with NGS and Hungary in testing. CERN will start using this interface for publishing of local jobs soon.
Implemented a prototype feed from an existing RUS into APEL.

Portal: No new releases of the accounting portal during this quarter. The service ran smoothly. We were working in the following issues:

- #GGUS 70193 - The accounting portal with metrics does not work with firefox4 
- #GGUS 69846 - EGI accounting pages show wrong values 
- #GGUS 62380 - HOW-TO of Foreign USER COMPUTATION 
- #GGUS 68953 - GGUS-FAQ about Responsible Units 
- #GGUS 69070 - [2] EGI Accounting portal - VO member view option 
- #GGUS 58980 - Wrong Italian Tier2 federations definition on accounting portal 
- #GGUS 67374 - The accounting information for prod.vo.eu-eela.eu disappeared from the VO Manager view
