Feb 1, 2025February 2025: Delivered a targeted bug fix in the global-workflow to standardize wave observation processing paths, enhancing reliability of wave preparation jobs and reducing configuration complexity. The change replaces WAVECUR_DID with a hardcoded 'rtofs' across relevant configuration and script files, resolving Bugzilla issue #3337 and ensuring consistent data sourcing. The work aligns with ongoing maintenance, reduces data-path ambiguity, and improves reproducibility across environments.
