Shift handover: Aaron -> Bertrand
- A few failures with git cloning repositories and disk out of space on windows
- https test failure that serguei was pinged on
- graphic issues confusion: who do we assign?
    - Danilo: from now on it's Serguey
- Only 2 new posts on the forum this week

Proposals

- Proposal 1
    - bertrand: what do we do with releases that don't compile on certain platforms? 6.36 doesn't compile on the newest visual studio, might be an incompatibility with LLVM
    - danilo: in principle we keep on the plot releases that are not dropped, so we keep the plot as is until we figure out what goes on with windows 

- Proposal 2: adding an agents.md
    - Bertrand and Serguey: fully support it, good starting point for people starting out with these tools
    - Aaron: the top level AGENTS.md should make it easier to make extrnal AI contributions follow a certain pattern and easy for us to spot, it should also be minimal because ading extra context on top of all the existing documentation can be detrimental
    - Danilo: Jonas R. what do you think since you're the only one who commented on the PR?
    - Jonas R.: it's not set in stone so we can go ahead
    - Danilo: then we go ahead with this and see how it evolves in the future

Meeting summaries
- HighLo workshop:
    - Koen: very interesting, very wide range of technical levels in the audience

Liaisons reports

    - Silia: presented "modernizing analysis with ROOT" at LHCb innovative analysis techniques meaning
- alice:
    - Giacomo: Presented with Silia RDataLoader and RFile
    - Danilo: Did we get an RDataLoader alice use-case?
    - Silia: yes we got an alice TPC PID calibration analysis
- florine:
    - will be at the computing week next week
    - atlas release rntuple datasets and explicitly asked physics groups to try them, we might get some questions

Round table
- Aaron:
    - Danilo: when do we merge the migration PR
