Liz - Licensing meeting next week is in indico now. Only holds 10 people, could do with a bigger one if possible. It has vidyo.
John - Witek sent a mail that there’ll be another LPCC simu workshop. The same week as the CWP workshop on Mon/Tue. Overlap is minimal if CWP starts Tue/Wed.
Peter rearranged web pages, sent a note out yesterday.
John - simu WG is organizing a meeting at the end of the month. Address different physics scenarios in simulation.
Ian - started to put together a computing model/facilities googledoc and google group. Doc has a list of high level areas where work needs to be done. The document is a whiteboard for people to put ideas and concerns in, please feel free.
Peter - be sure everything is linked from the summary page so people see everything in one place
Dates fixed last week, May 22-24.
Location possibilities: Italy (won’t fly), Amsterdam, Bristol (served by EasyJet from GVA and it’s an EasyJet hub, can also use Birmingham nearby), … and of course CERN.
re Amsterdam: looking at possible venues. Have NIKHEF logistics support. Just had a Big Data for Big Science meeting, this would fit the theme. Easy to get to from everywhere. Looking at central venues.
Cost is an issue, what will the reg fee be? How much do hotels cost? Tickets expensive because of holidays?
Flight is only 35 CHF each way right now.
have pre-reserved conference room at CERN just in case.
30 on the doodle so far.
have a serious closeout
Licensing News
Reported last week: ATLAS has set the copyright of all their collaboration software to “CERN on behalf of the ATLAS collaboration”.
Will plan a packaging meeting soon
