Pacman is meant as a solution to a messy, amorphous, annoying problem that has plagued research projects that I have been involved with for many years. The current state of the software has been strongly influenced by meeting the particular needs of the U.S. ATLAS testbed, by Miron Livny's VDT group, by the iVDGL WorldGrid and Grid3 projects, by the needs of the LCG group and by the huge ATLAS software installations.
I'd like to particularly thank some of the people who have helped with this project in one way or another, roughly in order of appearance:
I hope that you find Pacman to be useful. Feedback suggestions, comments and especially bug reports are always welcome at
Pacman Headquarters.
Regards,
