3. Completed Tasks (I)
Prepare implementation of the new lattice with permanent skew quadrupoles
Build and measure magnets (FJ-D)
Generate and double check the magnet knob (FJ-D, YY, YN)
Prepare the online design lattice (GY,YY)
Prepare the IP orbit bumps (YN,HS)
Improve the turn-by-turn measurement from the beam position monitor
Quantify and highlight the problem (YY,YC)
Find work around: more bunch charge and calibration with bunch train (FJ-D,WW,UW)

4. Completed Tasks (II) April 19-23, 2007
Commission the new lattice in chronicle sequence:
Install PSK (FJ-D)
Store positron beam and initial tuning (Cap Sigma y = 14 microns) (FJ-D,GY)

Full MIA correction including bumps (FJ-D,GY,YY,YC)
Vertical dispersion correction with bumps (FJ-D, YC)
Global coupling correction with bumps (FJ-D, YC)
IP MIA coupling correction (25% in) (FJ-D, YY)
Reach Lsp = 5 at low currents (MS, WW)

18. Completed Tasks (III) April 30, 2007
Improve the new lattice (L=8.0)
Dial 15% of full MIA knob with bumps (FJ-D,YY)
Use w11,w12,w21,w22 knobs to gain lifetime and luminosity (F-J-D)
Lower the x chromaticity by -3.5 unit (FJ-D)
Improve the lifetime and background
Enlarged the momentum aperture (> 1/3 KHz)
Made the positron beam stronger
Have to made the electron beam stronger to gain luminosity (FJ-D)

19. Conclusion
Clearly, there are more work to do for this new lattice: both coupling and vertical dispersion. But differences are not that large. We are nearly back to even point at comparable currents relative to Apr 18, 2007.
Even we back out the permanent skew quadrupoles, we still have some work to do to reach the Aug. 15, 2006 lattice.
This lattice has the potential to surpass the Aug. 15, 2006 lattice. We opened a new region of parameters to gain luminosity with very high specifics. The High Energy Ring needs to be tuned accordingly.
We all worked extremely hard on this new lattice, especially FJ-D.

20. Short-Term Plan Check setting of sextupoles and chromaticity:
SF2, SD2 should be weaker: and (in LEGO init compared to and )
Reduce dispersions and couplings
Why large orbit excursion at SK5?
Directly correct dispersions
Maybe do it at high currents
Move nx+ toward the half integer
It was not a problem for single beam
Build and test IP tuning knobs, including couplings
