Observations of standard stars have not shown any strong deterioration, though some more detail measurements with a reflectometer are needed to get more precise results. In particular, the average zero points in the different filters are at most a few percent lower than just after the last aluminsation and there still does not seem a strong need for a re-aluminisation. We have tentatively scheduled an aluminisation of the main mirror for next year summer.
