   * mjobs/MJPedestal.cc
    
     - put in call to MHCamera::Projection the name of teh calling 
       class, otherwise the projected hsitogram will be overwritten by 
       an empyt one.

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationChargePix.[h,cc]
   * mcalib/MHCalibrationHiGainChargePix.[h,cc]
   * mcalib/MHCalibrationLoGainChargePix.[h,cc]

     - histogram name setting and title setting moved to constructor, 
       Functions Init and ChangeHistId derive directly from 
       MHcalibrationChargePix

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationChargeCam.[h,cc]
   * mcalib/MCalibrationChargeCam.[h,cc]
   * mcalib/MCalibrationChargeCalc.[h,cc]
  
     - introduced "average inner" and "average outer" higain and logain 
       pixels.


 2004/02/27: Raducci Sebastian 

   * mhist/Makefile
     - added mastro in the include list


 2004/02/27: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mmain/MEventDisplay.cc
     - replaced in fill8 obsolete MArrivalTime with MArrivalTimeCam.
     - Updated display of MC data: removed MCerPhotCalc, and replaced 
       it by MExtractSignal+MMcCalibrationUpdate+MCalibrate. Now
       MPedPhotCam is filled and all the camera display tabs are shown 
       correctly (most were not working for MC events since a while 
       ago).

   * mmain/Makefile
     - Added mcalib to list of include directories.

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.[h,cc]
     - Added member variable Bool_t fOuterPixelsScaling, which is 
       kTRUE by default. If set to kFALSE, MCalibrationCam is filled 
       such that MCerPhotEvt will later be filled with the signal as it 
       is, not corrected for the (possibly) different gain of the outer 
       pixels electronic chain. This option was necessary to allow for
       the change in the camera display (see above).

   * macros/starmc.C
     - added (optional) division of output into two, for use as train 
       and test samples in g/h separation studies.


 2004/02/26: Hendrik Bartko

   * macros/dohtml.C
     - included the path msignals/


 2004/02/26: Abelardo Moralejo

   * macros/starmcstereo.C
     - changed filters to divide data between train and test sample for
       gamma hadron separation studies. Now we use the modulus operator
       applied to (Corsika) event number:
         MF filter1("{MMcEvt;1.fEvtNumber%2}<0.5");
         MF filter2("{MMcEvt;1.fEvtNumber%2}>0.5");
     - cleaned up a bit the way the CT coordinates are fed to the task
       MStereoCalc.
     - Changed default FADC integration range (center range to adapt to 
       new camera).

       This error had been introduced on 13/02/04
     - loosened criterium convFFactorRelErrLimit from 0.1 to 0.2

     - added the "charge" versions, remove the old ones. The histograms 
       should be filled in the MH... versions independently of 
       MCalibrationChargeCalc. This is fully realized for the PIN Didoe 
       now and will later be so for the pixels and the blind pixel. 

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationChargePINDiode.[h,cc]

       the class
     - remove completely MCalibrationConfig.h



 2004/02/19: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mhist/MHEvent.[h,cc]:
     - Changed names of Event "types" to make them more descriptive.
       Former kEvtSignal is now called kEvtSignalDensity, and indicates
       pixel content scaled by area. Added kEvtSignalRaw, which 
       corresponds to pixel content (with no scaling) in whatever units
       (this depends on how the MHEvent object is filled!). The default
       constructor initializes type=kEvtSignalRaw.

   * mmain/MEventDisplay.cc
     - Changed filling of evt1 and evt2. Now they are filled with raw 
       content of MCerPhotEvt. Since in MEventDisplay, MCerPhotEvt is
       still filled uncalibrated (hence in ADC counts), this means that 
       what will be now shown in Mars' camera display is now the signal 
       in each pixel without scaling with pixel area. Given that the 
       default flat fielding is such that equal light density 
       corresponds to equal absolute signal (in ADC counts), this is 
       more reasonable, and allows to check for instance how the 
       relative pixel gains are adjusted by looking at calibration 
       events. To be FIXED: there is however an "inconsistency" in 
       MEventDisplay, and it is that MCerPhotEvt is still used to keep
       uncalibrated signals. To be replaced by MExtractedSignalCam?



 2004/02/19: Thomas Bretz

   * manalysis/MCerPhotEvt.h:
     - added operator= to MCerPhotEvtIter -- is this correct?

   * mhist/MHCamera.[h,cc]:
     - added member function to calculate minimum content and 
       maximum content for a single sector
     - Added possibility to get a projection for a single sector.
     - GetMinimum/GetMaximum now only takes used pixels into account
       (you can request all pixels using a different member function)
     - fixed projection (projection only took pixels with contents!=0
       instead of 'used' pixels
     - Don't call Sumw2() anymore for projection

   * mjobs/MJPedestal.cc:
     - added MPedestalCam to output again - MPedestalCam was fixed
       yesterday
     - Added Histograms for the two camera halves



 2004/02/18: Markus Gaug

    * macros/calibration.C

      - added comment explaining the algorithm.
      - changed explicit values of Sin and Cos 60 degrees by const
        variables (more readable).

     - changed GetSize from UInt_t to Int_t which is the type
       of TClonesArray::GetSize() !

   * mgui/MHexagon.cc
     - DistanceToPrimitive(Float_t px, Float_t py) Changed check of
       whether px,py is inside the pixel or not. Previous algorithm 
       was just an approximation.



 2004/02/17: Raquel de los Reyes

   * mcamera/MCameraHV.h
     - Now it derives from a MCamEvent class and implemented the
       GetPixContent() and DrawPixelContent() functions. Added the 
       GetMean function to get the mean HV settings of the camera.

   * MCalibrationCam.cc, MCalibrationConfig.h, MCalibrationCalc.cc:
     - found serious bug in calculation of conversion factors for the 
       outer pixels: 
       GetMeanConversionBlindPixelMethod and

     - added 3rd argument, "kFALSE", to call of MWriteRootFile::Add
       for both MMcEvt and MMcRunHeader since these containers are
       not present in real data. Name of macro is no longer adequate if

     - optimized calculation of MaxIdx



 2004/02/04: Abelardo Moralejo

  * macros/starmc2.C
    - removed unnecessary variables BinsHigh, BinsLow



 2004/02/04: Markus Gaug

  * manalysis/MPedestalCam.[h,cc], manalysis/MPedestalPix.[h,cc],
    manalysis/MPedCalcPedRun.[h,cc], manalysis/MHPedestalPixel.[h,cc],
    macros/calibration.C:
    - histograms are now filled with MFillH as proposed and coded by 
      Thomas Bretz. Some modifications had to be done, however. 
    - Class to hold MHPedestalPixel is still MPedestalCam
    - MPedCalcPedRun does nothing any more (except from what is was 
      doing before)

  * manalysis/MExtractSignal.cc
    - remove uncommented code

  * mcalib/MCalibrationCalc.[h,cc]
    - modified way to handle histogram overflow: Now flags are set and 
      ChargevsN histogram is not tried to be filled subsequently



 2004/02/03: Markus Gaug
 
   * manalysis/MHExtractedSignalPix.[h,cc]
     - added Thomas B. modified version of MHPedestalPixel. Later will 
       remove MHPedestalPixel

   * manalysis/MCalibrationPix.[h,cc], manalysis/MHCalibrationPixel.[h,cc],
     manalysis/MCalibrationCam.cc, macros/calibration.C:
     - now split completely absolute and relative times. Absolute 
       times are not fitted, but their histogram mean and rms are 
       returned.



 2004/02/03: Thomas Bretz

   * mfileio/MReadTree.cc:
     - fixed handling of -1 entries in AddFile: root 3.10/02 crashed

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.[h,cc]:
     - moved code to extract the signal from Process to
       new member function FindSignal, I left the arrival time 
       extraction as commented-out code in the code just as a 
       demonstration to do this very fast.



 2004/02/02: Markus Gaug

  * manalysis/MPedCalcPedRun.cc
    - corrected formulae in Class description

  * mcalib/MCalibration.[h,cc], mcalib/MHCalibration.[h,cc],
    manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.cc:
    - calculate relative times and absolute times. Fit only 
      the relative ones. 



 2004/02/02: Abelardo Moralejo

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.cc, MMcPedestalCopy.cc
     - removed file type check (MC or data) from PreProcess since now
       run headers are not yet known at that point.

   * mcalib/MMcCalibrationCalc.cc
     - same as above.

   * NEWS
     - updated.



 2004/02/02: Thomas Bretz

     - changed default FADC integration range (more adequate for coming
       camera version).

   * macros/mccalibrate.C, starmc2.C
     - added. First macro transforms input files from camera simulation
       into files with pixel data already calibrated in photons. The 
       second reads in an already calibrated data file and produces an 
       output file with Hillas parameters. Both together do the same as
       starmc.C, but it is convenient to have files containing 
       calibrated pixel information.



 2004/01/30: Thomas Bretz
 
   * mbase/MDirIter.h:
     - added GetNumEntries

     - do not skip adding filter if only a filter with the same name 
       exists
       
   * mraw/MRawFileRead.cc:
     - added an output message if run header is not accessible
     
   * mraw/MRawRunHeader.[h,cc]:
     - initialize fRunType to new enum kRTNone

   * mfilter/MFGeomag.cc:
     - set fResult to kFALSE at the beginning of Process
     - according to this removed setting fResult=kFALSE before return
     - replaced some float by Float_t
     - added some const-qualifiers
     - replaced (rig<0.5/pr*R*(r2-r1)+r1) by (rig-r1)*pr<rnd
       with rnd = R * (r2-r1)/2 to make sure that we cannot
       devide by 0

     - fBlindPixelId and fPINDiodeId now like in PedestalCam
     - fill Blind Pixel with information about its fitted pedestal if 
       available
     - initialize charges histogram with a bigger range
     - use pedestal information to constrain the pedestal fit ranges

   * manalysis/MHPedestalPixel.cc
     - initialize charges histogram with a bigger range

   * macros/calibration.C
     - SetRange of MExtractSignal to 1,14 (see emails of yesterday)
     - apply new GetPixelContents of MPedestalCam (more calculations 
       and displays of errors, correction for different FADC slice 
       number)

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.cc
     - not access to MArrivalTime any more. The same information is 
       stored in MRawEvt->GetPixelContent(...)

   * manalysis/MCalibrationCalc.cc
     - retrieve default arrival time from MRawEvt 

   * manalysis/MCalibrationBlindPix.cc, manalysis/MCalibrationPix.cc
     - check for NaN's in fit results



 2004/01/29: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mfileio/MWriteFile.h
     - added missing declaration of ReInit

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.cc
     - added call to MCalibrationCam::SetBlindPixelMethodValid(kTRUE) 
       to adapt to recent changes in MCalibrate.



 2004/01/29: Thomas Bretz

     - split derivement into MParContainer and MCamEvent

   * manalysis/MExtractSignalCam.[h,cc]:
     - removed obsolete MExtractSignal::ReInit
     - added -> to fArray

   * mbase/MParList.h:
     - added a new bit kIsProcessing
     
   * mbase/MTaskList.cc:
     - fixed the handling of kDoNotReset and the bahaviour of
       SetReadyToSave, such that it is possible to write all
       headers

     - added ReInit which also calls CheckAndWrite
     
   * mgui/MCamEvent.h:

 2004/01/29: Markus Gaug

   * mcalib/MCalibrationCalc.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationCam.[h,cc], 
     mcalib/MCalibrationConfig.h
     - put gkCalibrationBlindPixelId and gkCalibrationPINDiodeId 
       directly into the corresponding classes.



 2004/01/29: Nicola Galante

   * mhistmc/MHMcTriggerLvl2.[h,cc]:
     - In method MHMcTriggerLvl2::GetHistByName(const TString name) 
       added string checking to return also 
       fHistCellPseudoSize, fHistCellPseudoSizeNorm

     - corrected Int_t ReInit() to Bool_t ReInit(MParList *pList)

   * mcalib/MCalibrationCalc.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationCam.[h,cc]:
     - included flags to indicate if Blind Pixel Method or PIn Diode 
       method was OK. Up to now, program stopped, if one of the two 
       methods was chosen but not able to being executed.

   * manalysis/MArrivalTimeCalc.cc, manalysis/MExtractSignals.cc,
     manalysis/MGeomApply.cc:

     - old methods are not affected. 
     - add new method with MPedCalcPedRun::SetUseHists()



 2004/01/28: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mcalib/MMcCalibration.cc
     - fixed wrong variable type in call to TH1F constructor (number of
       bins is now integer), which resulted in a compilation warning.



 2004/01/28: Thomas Bretz

   * manalysis/MPedestalCam.cc:
     - removed unwanted CheckBound from operators. CheckBounds is ONLY
       ment for really old MC files and will be removed in the future
       anyhow.

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationPixel.h:
     - removed obsolete include of MFFT 

   * manalysis/MCerPhotAnal.cc, manalysis/MCerPhotCalc.cc,
     manalysis/MPedestalCam.[h,cc]:
     - removed use of obsolete MPedestalCam::CheckBounds. This was
       a workaround for a 'bug' in very old camera files, which is not
       necessary anymore.

   * manalysis/MCerPhotAnal2.[h,cc]:
     - replaced MPedestalCam by MPedPhotCam
     
   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.cc:
     - some small simplification to the signal extraction
     - removed some obsolete variables
     - replaced for by while

     - gave names to the filters
     - removed adding MHCamera to fList because it was deleted twice

     - fixed usage of fPainter in Paint() - title was not updated 
       correctly



 2004/01/28: Sebastian Raducci

   * manalysis/MArrivalTime.[h,cc]:
     - removed all the code relative to the cluster evaluation



 2004/01/27: Markus Gaug
 
   * manalysis/MPedestalPix.cc:
     - initialize default values to 0 instead of -1.

   * manalysis/MPedestalCam.[h,cc]:
     - include CheckBounds, also in operator[]

   * mcalib/MCalibrationCam.[h,cc]:
     - apparently, there was a reference to InitSize(UInt_t i) instead 
       of InitSize(Int_t i), where compiler complained, now changed
 
   * mcalib/MHCalibration*, mcalib/MCalibration*:
     - fixed all Clear()'s, Reset()'s, direct intializers



 2004/01/27: Thomas Bretz

   * mdata/MDataChain.cc:
     - added '%' to supported operators



 2004/01/26: Nicola Galante

   * manalysis/MMcTriggerLvl2.[cc,h]:

     - Defined some static constants to avoid ugly "magic numbers"
       in arrays: gsNCells, gsNTrigPixels,
       gsNPixInCell, gsNLutInCell, gsNPixInLut, fNumPixCell.
     - Added method 
       MMcTriggerLvl2::GetCellCompactPixel(int cell, MGeomCam *fCam)
       which computes compact pixels into a given L2T macrocell.
     - Added method 
       MMcTriggerLvl2::CalcBiggerCellPseudoSize() 
       which computes fCellPseudoSize, the maximum Pseudo Size into L2T 
       macrocells
     - Added method 
       MMcTriggerLvl2::GetCellPseudoSize() const 
       which returns fCellPseudoSize
     - Added method 
       MMcTriggerLvl2::IsPixelInCell(Int_t pixel, Int_t cell),
       which controls whether a pixel belongs to a given L2T cell.
     - Added method 
       MMcTriggerLvl2::GetMaxCell() const 
       which returns fMaxCell, the cell with the maximum 
       fCellPseudoSize.



 2004/01/26: Markus Gaug, Michele Doro

   * manalysis/MArrivalTime.[h,cc], manalysis/MArrivalTimeCalc.[h,cc]:
     - moved calculation of arrival time from MArrivalTime to 
       MArrivalTimeCalc. MArrivalTime does not do any Process-job
       anymore
     - TSpline5 now on stack. 
     - function to set the stepsize

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationBlindPixel.[h,cc]:
     - force mu_{0} in Blind Pixel Fit to be around 0 in fKPoisson4
     - implement combined Polya fit and Michele's back-scattered electron
       fit 

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationPixel.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationPix.cc,
     mcalib/MCalibrationPINDiode.cc:
     - combine FitChargeHiGain and FitChargeLoGain into one function

   * macros/calibration.C
     - improve double gauss fit a bit



 2004/01/26: Thomas Bretz

   * mraw/MRawEvtPixelIter.[h,cc]:
     - removed member function GetNumPixels. For more details see mantis.

   * manalysis/MArrivalTime.[h,cc]:
     - reorganized includes
     - fixed InitSize and ClearArray (now Reset) to fit MParContainer
       definition
     - for the moment removed usage of fPixelChecked - THIS WILL CRASH YOUR
       PROGRAM

   * manalysis/MArrivalTimeCalc.[h,cc]:
     - reorganized includes
     - removed many obsolete code, exspecially copy&paste relicts!
     - fixed usage of InitSize
     - removed CleanArray. Reset() is called automatically before Process()

   * manalysis/MExtractedSignalCam.[h,cc]:
     - added SetLogStream
     - removed obsolete include MGeomCam
     - replaced PrintOut by Print
     - added const-qualifiers to all Getters

 2004/01/24: Abelardo Moralejo

   * macros/starmcstereo.C
     - Added. Example of how to run the analysis chain for MC files
       containing simulation of stereo systems of 2 telescopes.

   * mcalib/MCalibrate.cc
     - Added check that value of signal from MExtractedSignalPix is not
       the default (error) value. In such a case, the signal in 
       MCerPhotEvt is now set to 0. Before, all pixels got very high
       values in MCerPhotEvt in case the MRawEvtData object for the
       event was missing in the file. This happened in MC files, in 
       which in some circumstances an event is written without the
       pixel information (for instance, when running stereo simulations
       the pixel data is missing for non-triggered telescopes, but the
       event headers are present).



 2004/01/23: Markus Gaug

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.[h,cc], manalysis/MExtractedSignalPix.[h,cc],
     manalysis/MArrivalTime.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationBlindPix.h,
     mcalib/MHCalibrationBlindPixel.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationPINDiode.h,
     mcalib/MHCalibrationPINDiode.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationPix.[h,cc],
     mcalib/MHCalibrationPixel.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationCalc.[h,cc]:
     - use MArrivalTime for Storage (or calculation) of time
       in MExtractSignal
     - pass from TH1I histos to TH1F for times

   * mcalib/MCalibrationBlindPix.h, mcalib/MHCalibrationBlindPixel.[h,cc],
     mcalib/MCalibrationPix.[h,cc], mcalib/MHCalibrationPixel.[h,cc],
     mcalib/MCalibrationCalc.[h,cc]:
     - clean up  setters 
     - pass to bit-fields for all flags

       calculation of times and quality checks



 2004/01/23: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mcalib/MCalibrate.cc, manalysis/MExtractSignal.cc
     - Added support (using AddSerialNumber) for stereo MC files.



 2004/01/23: Thomas Bretz

   * mbase/MAstro.cc:
     - Fixed calculation of MJD. In Ymd2Mjd a plus should be a minus.

   * mreport/MReport*.[h,cc]:
     - changed all classes to return Int_t instead of Bool_t in 
       InterpreteBody
     - changed MReportFileRead such, that a wrong line results in
       skipping the line instead of abort reading.

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.cc:
     - do not print information for each pixel - it's too much.
     
   * mbase/MStatusDisplay.cc:
     - when reading a status display do not display tabs with
       the same name than one which is already existing.
       
   * mcalib/MCalibrate.cc:
     - directly store pointer to pixel when setting saturation flag
     
   * mcamera/MCameraDC.cc:
     - fixed some comments
     
   * mhist/MHCamEvent.cc:
     - fixed a crash when no geometry was available

   * mhist/MHCamera.[h,cc]:
     - removed obsolete member function SetPix

   * mbase/MStatusDisplay.[h,cc]:
     - added EventInfo member function
     - implemented preliminary redirection of GetObjectInfo to
       StatusLine2 -> An own status line for this is missing

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.[h,cc]:
     - implemented StreamPrimitive
     - changed deafults to be static const data members
     
   * manalysis/MGeomApply.[h,cc]:
     - implemented StreamPrimitive



 2004/01/23: Abelardo Moralejo

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.[h,cc] 
     - Added check to guarantee that the FADC simulation parameters of
       all read files (those used for calibration and those analyzed) 
       are the same.
     - Added missing support for analysis of stereo files.

   * mcalib/MMcCalibrationCalc.cc
     - Removed obsolete FIXME comment.
     - Added missing support for analysis of stereo files.


 2004/01/23: Raquel de los Reyes

   * macros/CCDataCheck.C
     - Added the temperature distribution of the optical links
       and the plots of the LV power supplies.
   * mcamera/MCameraLV.h
     - Added the "Get" functions to access the private data 
       members of the class.


 2004/01/22: Abelardo Moralejo

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.[h,cc]
     - Now ratio of high to low gain is taken from MCalibrationCam if
       it existed previously in the parameter list, instead of being
       read again from the MMcFadcHeader. Removed Setter function for
       fADC2PhInner, no longer necessary. Fixed error regarding the 
       pedestal conversion to photons (did not read conversion factor
       from preexisting MCalibrationCam object).

   * mcalib/MMcCalibrationCalc.cc
     - Changed parameters of the histogram, and also the quantity being 
       histogrammed. Check that input data come from a noiseless camera
       file before proceeding to do the calibration. Introduced lower
       size in cut for calibration. Now rhe calibration constant is not
       calculated from the mean of photons/ADC counts, but from the peak
       of the histogram.

   * macros/starmc.C
     - Introduced new scheme. Now there are two loops over two different
       sets of files. First loop calculates the calibration constants,
       second one does the analysis. Introduced comments. Now the 
       histogram used in the light calibration is written to the output
       file.



 2004/01/22: Thomas Bretz

   * mcalib/MCalibrate.[h,cc], mcalib/MCalibrationCam.[h,cc],

     - cleaned up includes



 2004/01/22: Raquel de los Reyes

   * macros/CCDataCheck.C
     - macro to check the data from the central control (.rep files).



 2004/01/22: Markus Gaug

   * macros/calibration.C
     - made MStatusDisplay 3 bit smaller

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.cc
     - put fSignals->SetUsedFADCSlices into PreProcess

   * manalysis/MPedCalcPedRun.cc
     - calculate PedRMS as RMS of the sums, later renormalized to units 
       of RMS/slice (eliminate the wrong effect of odd and even slices)

   * mcalib/MCalibrationCalc.cc
     - if bit SkipBlindPixelFit is set, now number of photons outside 
       plexiglass is not intended to be calculated any more (previous
       bug)
     - exclude excluded pixels in eventloop
        
   * mcalib/MHCalibrationBlindPixel.[h,cc]
     - move functions to pointer again (otherwise, Clone will give 
       strange results)



 2004/01/21: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mcalib/MMcCalibrationCalc.[h,cc]
     - Added. First version of the task intended to calculate the
       conversion factors from ADC counts to photons in the MC. It has
       a different aim than the recently renamed class 
       "MMcCalibrationUpdate" (which takes care that the correct 
       pedestals and conversion factors are supplied to each event, but 
       does not really calculate anything).

   * mcalib/Makefile, CalibLinkDef.h
     - Added new class MMcCalibrationCalc

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.[h,cc]
     - Now the container MCalibrationCam is not created or modified if
       it is found that one such container already exists in the 
       Parameter list (from a previous calibration).



 2004/01/21: Thomas Bretz

   * mraw/MRawRead.cc:
     - restore the fake time for all runs (current time stamp in
       the data seems to be toally nonsense)
 
   * mraw/MRawEvtHeader.cc:
     - removed decoding of real time (current time stamp in the data
       seems to be toally nonsense)



 2004/01/21: Abelardo Moralejo

   * mmc/MMcEvt.hxx
     - Uncommented 6 Getter functions (those regarding the number of 
       photons surviving the different stages of simulation).

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.[h,cc]
     - Added (see below).

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationCalc.[h,cc]
     - Removed: changed name of this class to MMcCalibrationUpdate, 
       which is more representative of what it really does. Moved 
       the filling of the MCalibrationCam container from Process to 
       ReInit, since it does not change on an event by event basis.
       Simplified PreProcess (MCalibrationCam was searched for twice).
       Updated class description and comments.

   * manalysis/Makefile, AnalysisLinkDef.h
     - Adapted to change above

   * macros/starmc.C

     - Added member functions Grow (training of RF) and Fill (reading in
       trained forest from file) which simplify macros. 
       One just needs to call them instead of using MRanForestGrow and 
       MRanForestFill (and the related training and fill loops) in a
       macro.



 2004/01/20: Abelardo moralejo

   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationCalc.cc

       systems for unkown reasons. I replaced it by a safer (and may be 
       slower) code.
     - Added calpix.SetFitValid();

   * mhist/MHEvent.cc
     - In MHEvent::Fill, fixed: second parameter of SetCamContent must

       different size).



 2004/01/12: Markus Gaug

   * manalysis/MExtractSignal.[h,cc]
     - take out some uncommented code 
     - replace logainshift by two independent variables: 
       logainfirst, logainlast

       from slices 4-9 to slices 3-8.

   * manalysis/MExtractedSignalPix.[h,cc]
     - took out some uncommented code
     - new initializers: instead of -1. now 99999.9



 2004/01/09: Markus Gaug

   * mcalib/MCalibrationCam.[h,cc]
     - take out 1-dim histos because we can use 
       the projections in MHCamera (s.b.)

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationBlindPixel.h
     - make the fit by default quiet

   * mcalib/MHCalibrationPixel.[h,cc]

   * macros/bootcampstandardanalysis.C
     - added new macro that holds the main scheleton discussed in the 
       december bootcamp in Wuerzburg. It runs first over a pedestal
       run, then over a calibration run, again over the pedestal run
       to compute de pedestal in number of photons and finally over a
       data run to calibrate the data.



 2004/01/06: Sebastian Raducci
   
   * manalysis/MArrivalTime.[h,cc]
     - added new method to calculate photon arrival times. It uses the
       TSpline5 Root Class to interpolate the Fadc Slices. The time is
       the abscissa value of the absolute maximum of the interpolation
     - added new method to find clusters with similar arrival times.
       For now it's a preliminary version. It simply search for adiacent
       pixels having the same arrival time (color).

   * manalysis/MArrivalTimeCalc.[h,cc]
     - modified the Process() method according to the changes in the
       Arrival Time Cointainer

   * mmain/MEventDisplay.cc
     - added new tab in the camera event display to show the arrival
       time. This arrival time is calculated with the spline method
     - the old Arrival Time pad now it's called Max Slice Idx, because
       it's only the index of the slice with the max content.
   
   * mhist/MHEvent.[h,cc]
     - added new fType in te enumeration to handle the arrival time
       histos
