Present: Steve, Deborah, Roland, Keith, Leo, Johnny, Liwei, Maxwell
Einstein Toolkit release ========================
* Maxwell will send out announcement just after the call * Steve reminds the release managers to update the docs and release process notes * testsuite runs are only present for Anvil, DB1, Delta, Expanse, Frontera ** failures of TOVola on all tested clusters, Leo and Roland will reach out to David Boyer * Steve volunteers to handle the next release, Roland points out that Zach also volunteered to handle one release
US Summer School ================
* titles are still missing for many talks, Johnny will reach out to speakers * Steve will present the getting started with the ET tutorial * 1.5hrs per invited speaker, more if needed for the tutorial * some speakers still need to verify their proposed slot * funding situation for travel grants is being sorted out, should contact the admin person of site funding travel if have any question * there is a reduced number of participants compared to initial estimates * for recordings of talks, can either upload to site-local YouTube channel then link in ET playlists or use ET channel to upload (Roland, Frank, Steve (?) can add members to the ET channel) * there will not be an organized outing, but Wed afternoon is off for visitors to interact on their own or explore Austin
Open tickets ============
* https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2871 "EOS_Omni's nuceos code used int to hold hid_t values" is a wrong type, fix is known and quick. This should actually make tabulated EOS fail with new enough HDF5.
* Steve suggests to add LD_OPENMP_FLAGS to generic.cfg and other option lists. This flag is new and introduced to avoid passing CXXFLAGS to the linker. Roland says that there should be fallback defaults, but they may not trigger if one sets other LD options. Steve does not set those, will point Roland to how to reproduce this on tutorial server.
* https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/tickets/issues/2848 "Updates to FLRWsolver" is mostly the inclusion ticket for the release. Some code that was added shortly before the release to work around test failures, but should be cleaned up as pointed out by the reviewer (Zach).
Any other topics ================
* Steve was contacted about presenting at a Perl conference in Austin July 3/4, looking for interested people * this would include a paper (CS-like, attached to a conference) * registration deadline is July 1 * https://www.papercall.io/perlcommunity
Yours, Roland
