The SKA LMC TANGO Harmonisation meeting was held this week in Trieste. The meeting started with TANGO training and then went on to discuss 20 of the typical SKA use cases on how to implement the Local Monitoring and Control (LMC) using TANGO. The meeting highlighted the momentum of TANGO @ SKA. It was clear that a number of the sites working on SKA have acquired TANGO skills. The feedback provided by the experts allowed them to continue in the right direction. The SKA Office organised and chaired the meeting. TANGO is definitely picking up speed in the SKA project.
The meeting was hosted by INAF Trieste in the historical conference centre at Trieste. Historical for TANGO because this was the place where TANGO was first publicly presented at the ICALEPCS 99 conference in 1999. Trieste was as usual a great place to meet and discuss about TANGO again.

A new era has about to start in the Tango Controls community with the Tango Controls Collaboration Contract! Four institutes, Elettra + Solaris + MAX IV + ESRF + ALBA, have signed the Collaboration Contract. They will soon be joined by three other institutes. The Collaboration Contract will allow the Tango Controls community to have funds to maintain the common core of Tango. The signatories of the Collaboration Contract will together form the Executive Board which will be in charge of deciding what the finances should be spent on. The budget will help ensure the sustainability of Tango. Tasks which are lacking resources today can now be addressed in the interests of the whole community. The new contract is another step of Tango Controls in the direction of a long life with continuous improvements!

Dear Tangoers,
I'm happy to announce that the Solaris finished the first stage of the commissioning. We have injected 200mA into the storage ring as well as ramped the beam to full 1.5GeV energy at more than 100mA. So, the Solaris future shines brightly :).
Thank you All !!!
Coming two months we have upgrade shutdown. We will install some additional RF cavities (so called Landau) into the storage ring, finish construction of the PEEM beamline and upgrade the control system to Tango 9. Next year we will proceed with commissioning of beamlines .

A TANGO workshop was held at the ICALEPCS 2015 conference on Sunday 18 October. Approximately 40 people attended. The workshop introduced new users to the concepts of TANGO and then went on to describing the new features in TANGO 9. All demos were done using the TANGO Virtual machine. There were many questions and discussions were lively. We thank the participants for their contribution. The format of the workshop proved to be well adapted to the audience.Most people found it useful to attend and learned a lot (even the old hands).
