Interface Impacts

The switch to kadi commands-v2 includes API changes that have been widely discussed in informational forums. In particular, getting commands may try using network resources by default. The commands archive files in $SKA/data will be updated to a new version upon this release.

There was a change in the default behavior when filtering bad values in cheta.fetch.MSIDset.filter_bad() (and in Msidset()): Previously, filter_bad attempted to combine the "bad" value mask of MSIDs in the set that have the same type. Now the default is to set the masks for each MSID separately.
