HSF Advisory Group

We decided the Advisory Group should be composed of HEP experiments, WLCG and representatives from the generator/theory community.

Affiliate Projects

ACTION: Eduardo and Pere to refine better the notion of metrics for different levels of project support from the HSF (bronze, silver, gold)

Graeme worked on using shields.io to produce badges that can be used on GitHub/GitLab. See the new README on the website, where new SVG versions of the HSF logo also exist.

Seminar Series

Decided to hold the seminar series in the same timeslot as the current Compute and Accelerator Forum, viz. 16h30 CEST on Wednesdays.

At the moment we keep the C&AF and the HSF Seminars separate identities.

Some interest in also using this slot for a renewed Software and Computing Roundtable, TBD.

Organising the seminar series will become a standing item in the HSF Coordination Meetings.

AOB

The next SG meeting will be on Monday 15 July at 15h CEST.
