Possible fix to stalled projects</a>. Thomas has
relaunched some previously stalled projects. Most of
them have moved to completion except for three. These
require a pre-fix version set.</li>

href="https://mailman.jlab.org/pipermail/halld-offline/2020-March/003964.html">current
best-practice for CCDB access from farm jobs</a>.
Besides the procedure described in his email, Mark
reported on yet another method used with success by
Karthik. He had a private CCDB SQLite file that he
wanted to use for farm jobs. The technique which
worked was to store the SQLite file on volatile or
cache and copy it to the local farm node for each job.
Another future option is a compact SQLite database
without full run number coverage that Mark has been
working on.</li>

<h4><span class="mw-headline" id="CCDB_2.0">CCDB 2.0</span></h4>
<p>Mark has succeeded with an automated build of CCDB 2.0
in Build Scripts, including all of the GlueX packages.
He needs to get an example database from Dmitry Romanov
to test the build.
