We present preliminary results of the analysis of a set of Hubble Space Telescope/Faint Object Camera images of the center of M15, the prototypical post-core-collapse globular cluster. We rule out, at the 95% confidence level, the 2″.2 core claimed to be detected in pre-repair HST imaging. We also measure a mass function in a field 20″ from the center.
