+
+   * manalysis/MGeomApply.cc
+     - Now, if the MGeomApply task has a serial number >0 (indicating 
+       most likely a specific telescope in a multi-telescope file), then 
+       apply the geometry only to objects with the same serial number. 
+       This is important for stereo setups in which the telescopes have 
+       cameras with different numbers of pixels. If the MGeomApply task 
+       has serial number 0 (default), it will apply the geometry to all 
+       found objects as it used to do.
+
+   * manalysis/MMcCalibrationUpdate.cc, mpedestal/MMcPedestalCopy.cc
+     - Now the PreProcess adds the serial number also to MRawRunHeader
+       and MMcRunHeader, since in stereo MC files produced with the 
+       current camera simulation at CVS there is one such container per 
+       telescope. There is no difference in behaviour for single 
+       telescope files. Old MC stereo files will no longer be readable.
+
+   * mimage/MNewImagePar.cc
+     - Made calculation of "Inner size" valid also for camera geometries
+       other than MAGIC standard one. The calculation of "inner leakage"
+       is now made only for MAGIC standard geometry (there is no easy 
+       fix for that, but having fInnerSize and MHillas.fSize, the inner 
+       leakage is a completely unnecessary parameter). Added a comment on
+       a possible fix for the calculation of fConc.
+
+   * mcalib/MMcCalibrationCalc.[h,cc]
+     - Added member fMinSize and setter for it. It is the minimum 
+       (uncalibrated) size of events to be used in the calibration. 
+       Previously it was fixed at 1000 ADC counts, but the value depends
+       on the extractor used, so it must be possible to change it.
+     - Add the serial number to MRawRunHeader and MMcConfigRunHeader 
+       (now there is one per telescope in stereo files).
+     - Moved the creation of histograms from the constructor to the
+       PreProcess, otherwise the serial number is not added to the 
+       histogram name.
+     - In PostProcess, set the average QE for area 0 (inner pixels) in
+       MCalibrationQECam object, to be used later by MCalibrateData.
+   
+   * macros/starmcstereo.C
+     - Big update. Adapted to all changes above. Now not only relative, but
+       also absolute calibration (=SIZE in phes) is made.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Raquel de los Reyes (2005/07/12)
+
+   * merpp.cc
+     - Added the container MCameraActiveLoad to the rootified central
+       control files
+
+   * mreport/MReportCC.[h,cc]
+     - Changes in the InterpreteBody to write the variable UPS status and
+       the Time difference between GPS and rubidium clock. 
+
+  * mreport/MReportCamera.cc
+     - Changes in the InterpreteCamera and InterpreteBody functions to allow
+       the data merpping from 2005_06_30.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Abelardo Moralejo (2005/07/12)
+
+   * macros/starmcstereo.C
+     - Fixed error which made some objects to be written twice in the
+       _test_ output file.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Patricia Liebing (2005/07/06)
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationChargeCam.cc:
+    - include new flag (kLoGainBlackout) into the "uncalibrated"
+      pixel classification (see docu from 28/06/2005 Markus Gaug)
+
+   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelsPix.[cc.h], mcalib/MCalibrationChargeCalc.cc
+     - included flag kLoGainBlackout for unsuitable pixels w/
+       corresponding docu/printout (see MHCalibrationChargeCam.cc)
+ 
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationPulseTimeCam.cc, MHCalibrationCam.cc
+     - add Pixel ID to Debug printout statements 
+
+   * mjobs/MJCalibration.cc
+     - include new display for kLoGainBlackout unsuitable pixels
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Antonio Stamerra (2005/07/04)
+
+   * manalysis/MMcTriggerLvl2Calc.cc
+     - the checks written on ReInit for MC have been moved to PreProcess()
+     - kFALSE substituted with kSKIP in the check for the standard MAGIC 
+       geometry
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Abelardo Moralejo (2005/07/01)
+
+   * macros/starmc.C
+     - Set two different cleaning tasks for the calibration loop and 
+       for the second (analysis) loop. Otherwise, some pixels were 
+       cleaned out in the first loop (we do not want this) if the 
+       absolute method was chosen.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Abelardo Moralejo (2005/06/30)
+
+   * mmc/MTriggerDefine.h
+     - Added TRIGGER_PIXELS_4, a provisional number of trigger pixels
+       for the MGeomCamMagic1183 geometry.
+
+   * mgeom/MGeomCamMagic1183.[h,cc]
+     - added. Possible design for a MAGIC-II camera. Preliminary 
+       version, not yet ready to use.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Abelardo Moralejo (2005/06/29)
+
+   * mgeom/MGeomCamMagic1183.[h,cc]
+     - added. Possible design for a MAGIC-II camera
+
+   * mgeom/Makefile, GeomLinkDef.h
+     - added new class above.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/28)
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationChargeCam.[h,cc]
+     - set the fPickupLimit and fBlackoutLimit for the low-gain arrays
+       to a 3.5 instead of the default used in MHCalibrationPix (5.0).
+     - use a new criterium to exclude bad pixels: If the high-gain was
+       saturated and the blackout-events in the low-gain exceed the 
+       fNumLoGainBlackoutLimit, the pixel is declared unsuitable.
+       This excludes those pixels which have a saturating high-gain 
+       channel, but the low-gain switch does not switch often enough 
+       to make the distribution reliable.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/23)
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationChargeCam.cc
+     - fix a bug counting the number of saturated events. Up to now, the 
+       number of saturated slices was counted (which is one for a not too
+       high number), but for some (pathological) pixels, many more slices
+       saturated and produced wrong limits.
+     - make the PickupLimit und BlackoutLimit for the low-gain explicitely
+       smaller. The too large limits caused a failed fit for some channels
+       which resulted in wrong calibration constants. (M. Gaug)
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/22)
+
+   * mjobs/MJPedestal.cc
+     - change order of reading local environmnet variables in lines 1044 
+       to 1068. Reason: The lines:
+            if (fExtractor==tenv.GetTask())
+               return kTRUE;
+       yielded sometimes a return before the rest of the env-variables 
+       could be read in. This affected ONLY the reading of the pedestal
+       reference file and the bad pixels file name. (M. Gaug)
+     - Added "decode" task (MTriggerPatternDecode) task to the list also 
+       for MC runs.
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationChargeCam.cc
+     - fixed the setting of unreliability for saturated events where the 
+       high-gain signal was not stable over time. Now, saturation is 
+       asked for before (like in the high-gain fitted-case). (M. Gaug)
+     - fixed a small bug in the precise setting of the histogram ranges. 
+       May have introduced a bias of typically 1 FADC cnt in the mean 
+       fitted signal (< 0.5%).
+
+   * mbadpixels/MBadPixelsPix.[h,cc]
+     - took out the un-used bad pixels information in function: 
+       GetUnsuitableCalLevel(). 
+     - debugged the class-documentation
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationIntensityChargeCam.cc
+     - a very small fix in the axis title from N_phe to N_{phe}
+     - fixed one bug in the draw-functions of this class. Not (yet) used by 
+       standard calibration.
+     - +some undocumented changes
+
+  * mjobs/MJCalibration.cc
+    - changed order in tasklist between MCalibColorSet and 
+      MPedCalcFromPedRun. Caused crashes in the intensity calibrations. 
+      Does not affect ordinary calibration since MPedCalcFromPedRun is 
+      then not in the tasklist anyhow. 
+    - changed order of MHCalibrationChargeCam and MCalibrationRelTimeCalc. 
+      This wrong order caused MCalibrationRelTimeCalc to print out 
+      unreliable pixels which were not set by the rel. time calibration. 
+      This caused some confusion in the reading of the output because of
+      the un-logical order of flag settings and posterior output.
+    - set the error of the hi-logain intercalibration constants
+      as the real error on the mean instead of the sigma.
+    - took out the those bad pixel-informations which are not used
+      any more in the "Defect" - display. (M. Gaug)
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/21)
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationChargePix.h
+     - take out one un-necessary 'virtual'-declaration for the Draw-
+       function
+
+   * mhcalib/MHGausEvents.cc
+     - fixed a small bug in the non-standard display with options.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/19)
+
+   * msignal/MExtractTimeAndChargeSpline.cc
+     - set fgOffsetLoGain from 1.7 to 1.39. This is the correct time
+       shift between high-gain and low-gain. Affects only very detailed
+       timing studies.
+
+   * msignal/MExtractTimeAndChargeDigitalFilter.cc
+     - set fOffsetLoGain from 1.7 to 1.4 which corrects now exactly for 
+       the arrival time difference between low-gain and high-gain pulses.
+       This wrong number could have had some effect on image cleanings
+       using the time information. (M. Gaug)
+ 
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationBlindCam.[h,cc]
+     - remove obsolete Copy-function
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibConstPix.h, mcalib/MCalibConstCam.h
+     - introduce Copy-functions
+     - set class index to 1 (was 0)
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationChargePix.[h,cc]
+     - introduce Copy() function.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/18)
+
+   * mpedestal/MPedestalCam.cc
+     - modify Print() function to print out also the event-by-event
+       averaged results.
+
+   * mpedestal/MExtractPedestal.[h,cc]
+     - new flag fUseSpecialPixels (set to kFALSE per default)
+     - new data member: fNameRawEvtData which can be set from outside 
+       (e.g. to "MRawEvtData2"). 
+     - with these two changes, the special pixels can be extracted. 
+       Difference to previous version: if flag fUseSpecialPixels is set, 
+       * the area and sector averages are not calculated.
+       * the MPedestalCam will get initialized to 
+         MRawRunHeader->GetNumSpecialPixels(). 
+     - fix a bug in the calculation of the event-by-event averaged 
+       pedestal RMS (one total number of areas or sectors was not taken 
+       into account). 
+     - make local variables in the calculation of rms and mean doubles
+       instead of floats.
+
+   * mpedestal/MPedCalcPedRun.cc
+     - do not calculate the area and sector averages in case flag
+       fUseSpecialPixels is set.
+     - check for existence of pointer fRawEvt in PostProcess.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/15)
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationIntensityConstCam.[h,cc]
+     - new class to store the actual applied conversion factors (now with 
+       averaged photo-electrons not in the MCalibrationIntensityChargeCam
+       any more).
+
+   * mjobs/MJCalibration.cc
+     - set the correct (statistical) error of the inter-calibraiton factor
+       into MCalibrationChargePix::SetConversionHiLoErr() and the 
+       sigma of the distribution
+       into MCalibrationChargePix::SetConversionHiLoSigma().
+     - In MCalibrationChargePix, the mean conversion error is used for the 
+       statistical error of the conversion factor.
+     - In CalibrateData, the sigma is used for the statistical error of the
+       converted signal to equiv. high-gain charges.
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/14)
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationHiLoPix.[h,cc]
+     - store also results from profile fits.
+     - increades class version
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationHiLoPix.[h,cc], mhcalib/MHCalibrationHiLoCam.[h,cc]
+    - added TProfiles for every pixel filled with the high-gain signal
+      vs. low-gain signal which can be fitted to extract gain and 
+      offset.
+
+   * mhcalib/Makefile, mhcalib/HCalibLinkDef.h
+     - added MHCalibrationHiLoPix
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/10)
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationRelTimeCalc.cc
+     - print out forgotten successfully calibrated pixels
+     - small change in spacing of one output
+
+   * mhcalib/MHCalibrationCam.[h,cc]
+     - introduce max. number of events, the rest gets skipped before the 
+       next ReInit() is called. Default: 4096
+       Reason: The calibration causes too many un-reliable pixels if more 
+               than about 5000 events are treated (@500 Hz) because of the
+               mode hopping of the VCSels. However, in the past, some 
+               calibration runs have been taken (erroneously) with more 
+               than 5000 events, especially the intensity scans where  
+               a good precision is needed.
+    - increased version number
+    - introduce a Getter for the fAverageAreaNum array.
+    - re-normalize the area-averaged sigmas to the equivalent number per 
+      pixel also for the intensity calibration.
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationChargePix.[h,cc]
+    - divide errors in stat. and syst. errors. Both can be retrieved
+      now, depending on the study, one wants to make.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Markus Gaug (2005/06/06) 
+
+   * mhcalib/MHGausEvents.[h,cc]
+     - put small functions into header file to speed up calculations a bit.
+
+   * mcalib/MCalibrationRelTimeCalc.cc
+     - introduce flags to steer the setting of unreliability like done 
+       in MCalibrationChargeCalc. Can be steered from the conf-file.
+
+
+
+ 2005/07/13 Thomas Bretz
+
+   * mbase/MTaskInteractive.[h,cc]:
+     - fixed a bug with calling ReInit... PostProcess was called instead.
+     - added the missing initialisation of fReInit in constructor
+
+   * sinope.cc:
+     - removed plotting the tasklist statistics twice
+     - replaced DrawClone by DrawCopy (DrawClone gave problems)
+
+   * mhflux/MAlphaFitter.[h,cc]:
+     - fixed the ThetaSq function. It was wrongly defined as
+       exp(-((x-c)/s)^2) instead of exp(-1/2*((x-c)/s))
+     - Set start value for corresponding fit back to same value
+       as for a standard gauss-fit.
