72.8

A new pilot version was just released with the following changes (presented in the ADC Weekly last week):

* Simplification of the PoolFileCatalog
- Removal of LFN from PFC
- Problem with derivations when having many input files
- Requested by R. Walker

* Memory monitor setup
- Added missing platform string for Nordugrid
- Requested by D. Cameron

* GFAL-copy update
- Support of dynafed+cloud ddm endpoint was added

* More accurate time HH:MM calculation for proxy validation command "grid-proxy-info -exists -valid HH:MM”
- Previous version failed on short time limits
- Note: arcproxy is used for most sites

* Event service update
- Now using different message server after Prefetcher restart (in case previous instance not killed properly)
- Note: problem fixed properly by adding session id to subprocess.Popen command to allow for killing entire process group with os.killpg()
- This fix was also applied for non-event service case

Additional update added since the ADC Weekly meeting last week:

* Container update
- Now using x86_64-centos6.img for SLC6 platforms as default image

Code contributions from A. Bogdanchikov, N. Magini, P. Nilsson.
