72.2

* Bug fix in checksum calculation during XML file creation.
- Now using calc_file_checksum() from movers/base module instead of old adler32() which can give a partial result in case zlib.adler32() throws an exception
- Reported by R. Walker

* Now writing PanDA IDs to special file picked up by wrapper.
- To associate wrapper-jobs to panda-jobs, mainly to clearly identify empty wrappers but has other monitoring uses
- Requested by P. Love

* Event service update.
- Pilot now checks a site’s state on the DDM blacklist, rather than just check if the site is on the list (since previous pilot version)
- Requested by W. Yang
Postponed change (requested by A. Filipcic in the ADC Weekly since it was seen to cause some problems on Norgugrid resources):

* Changed hostname -i to hostname –I (used when collecting machine features and in benchmark command).
- Requested by Alastair Dewhurst
- [hostname -i] will only list the IPv4 address on a dual stack machine which can cause confusion. If command changed to "hostname -I", then it will print out all addresses the host has (eg both the IPv4 and IPv6 address)
