27 Conclusions bulk thermodynamics with almost physical quark masses seems to be well under control; exploitation of USQCD resources allowed a world-wide leading, unique study of bulk thermodynamics with improved staggered fermions; low temperature region requires finer lattices to control systematics and allow a comparison with hadron gas phenomenology; high-t regime requires calculations on larger lattices to establish contact to (resummed) perturbation theory calculations of transport coefficients in quenched QCD yield results consistent with interpretation of heavy ion experiments, but require more work to control systematics studies of finite density QCD do not yet give a conclusive answer on the existence or non-existence of a critical point in the QCD phase diagram F.
