This update outlines the progress on the code migration project at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, as of February 24, 2010. Tools for migrating to versions SL4, SL5, and 6.1.6 are completed and undergoing testing. Notably, a new tarball for the 6.1.6m migration has been created. Challenges faced during validation processes and the need for volunteers to assist with testing are highlighted. Additionally, changes in method inheritance alongside decisions on sub-project timelines are discussed, with a focus on integration with the existing database infrastructure.
