• The IFU pipeline was delivered by the VIRMOS Consortium on June The IFU pipeline was delivered by the VIRMOS Consortium on June 2003. No documentation was available, and only LR spectral 2003. No documentation was available, and only LR spectral observations were supported at the time. The IFU DRS was also observations were supported at the time. The IFU DRS was also declared not to be suitable for declared not to be suitable for automaticautomatic data reduction. data reduction.
• On July 2003 it was decided to rewrite the IFU pipeline from On July 2003 it was decided to rewrite the IFU pipeline from scratch. Valuable suggestions about IFU data reduction issues were scratch. Valuable suggestions about IFU data reduction issues were provided by Eric Emsellem and Arlette Rousset-Pecontal (provided by Eric Emsellem and Arlette Rousset-Pecontal (Centre de Centre de Recherche Astronomique de LyonRecherche Astronomique de Lyon), and by Martin Roth (), and by Martin Roth (Astro-Astro-physikalisches Institut Potsdamphysikalisches Institut Potsdam).).
• The new ESO VIMOS pipeline, based on the CPL, was designed and The new ESO VIMOS pipeline, based on the CPL, was designed and developed in about eight months. It was delivered to Paranal on developed in about eight months. It was delivered to Paranal on March 2004, and to the user community on July 2004.March 2004, and to the user community on July 2004.
