[Users] 2021-10-21 meeting agenda

[Hamilton, Maria]

Present:
Yosef Zlochower, Maria Hamilton, Roland Haas, Atul Kedia, Leo Werneck, Steve Brandt, Peter Diener, David Bradley, Bilal Hameed

Chair: Steve Brandt
Minutes: Maria Hamilton

Agenda:
 *   Steve brings up Eric's suggestion to change "contribute" to "collaborate & interact" on the ETK web page
     *   Roland agrees that it makes sense
     *   Maria agrees as well, no one opposes
     *   Change accepted

 *   Next ET release:
     *   Steve explains Yosef’s role in the release as a deputy, to “scowler the tickets for include in release notes”. He advances that it will be a good idea to make the function of r"elease deputy" official in the future releases, as a training mechanism for potential coordinators.
     *   Steve asks why Gallery runs assigned have question marks? Roland answers that those are Helvi’s volunteers and he was not provided their names yet.
     *   Roland does not have any update on Reprimand. It is not critical, will only be checked out but not compiled, because it requires Boost, which is not supported by the ETK Development. It is not used by CarpetX, only used by THC.
     *   No update on FLWSolver.
     *   No update on Kuibit, but Yosef will look over it this coming Sunday.

*   Steve proposes to start searching for names for the next release.

     *   Nothing jumps out at anybody in particular
     *   David Bradley proposes a fictional character from Avengers
     *   Peter proposes NASA research mathematician Katherine Johnson

  *   Unanswered tickets and mailing list:
     *   #2571 https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2571/runtime-failure-due-to-useing-character-8

  *   Chair Nov 4 – Peter D

Remaining business
*   Steve: offers account on Deep Bayou, the HPC at LSU, if anybody wants to work on it to compile Carpet X. It has 14 nodes, 48 core, GPU, good for high performance codes.
*   Maria: gnuplot not working on Mac Big Sur, suggestion to maybe not use Mac.
     *   Leo Werneck encountered the problem and fixed it, might have a solution.
