PYTHIA 8 Status Report

Abstract

Pythia 8, the C++ rewrite of the commonly-used Pythia event generator, is now available in a first full-fledged version 8.1. The older Pythia 6.4 generator in Fortran 77 is still maintained, for now, but users are strongly recommended to try out and move to the new version as soon as feasible.

5 pages, to appear in the proceedings of the HERA and the LHC workshop, 26--30 May 2008, CERN
