# BLonD meeting minutes, 24/02/2023

* Attendance: Birk, Michalis, Leandro, Danilo, Heiko, Alex, Kostis, Alice, Ivan, Markus, Giulia, Simon, Fabian
* CodiMD to plan the upcoming application presentations (**AP Kostis**)
* Alice presentation, FCC electron-electron
 * Needs new distribution generation method
   * Ivan's trick to fake acceleration can be used to match the distribution
   * Heisinsky solution exists in old code, C++
   * Will proceed with the suggested workaround from Ivan, but we should implement new distribution matching function that takes into account full_ring object (**AP**)
 * Also more accurate modeling of the drift operation
* Juan's note, no public access yet, Heiko will contact them again
* BLonD development:
 * Move hosting to Gitlab (free CI/CD, hosted by CERN), setup Github mirror (**AP Kostis**)
* External user from DESY has questions about BLonD
* PRAB rebuttal: 
 * 4 easy to tackle remarks for next meeting (**AP Simon, Ivan, Alice, Leandro, Markus**)
 * Discuss in-review comments directly in the meeting
