USLHCNet
- had problem with Ciena, waiting for fix to go back to the production config.
- Testing badwidth protection with Ciena.

MDM: 
- signing of the MoU is progressing; still CERN and CNAF missing.
- Installation: started at NL-T1, KIT
- Software: hopefully something ready in February (tell them to change the Weather Map picture)
- In March we should have many of the MDM machines in place and also the weather map.

Operations
- Lot of work done on the Operational Model
- Ticketing system ready on 1/2/2009
- Trial Period Feb-Apr/09. 
- Ticketing System: Add "Expected Impact" field 

BACKUP tests
- To be run every at least every year and every time the router's config changes
- Real fault counts as test
- Document results on the twiki
- Would be better to run all the tests before the restart of the LHC

PERFORMANCE
- Information will be complemented by MDM
- MDM will also provide monthly reports
- ASPDrawer will run for 2009. When MDM will be in production, we'll decide its future.
- CERN may provide a machine to host the ASPdrawer.

TODO
- Edoardo: Put in the map the T1 sites that have backup via the generic Internet
- Guillame: Fix date(s) for the training, maybe one in Europe and one in North America.
- Partecipants of the training: fix a periodic Operation phone call
- CERN: to provide the audio conference system
- Edoardo-Guillaume: retrieve all the missing user to access GGUS.
- OPS-WG: provide key performance indicator to Wayne
- CERN: machine for ASPDrawer


NEXT MEETING
- 21-22 April 2009 in Utrecht NL
- Invite Surfent to present their new Geneva-Amsterdam fibre project
- Invite BNL to present their plan for the network.
- Operation evaluation
- Report on status of the E2Emon
- Proposal for backup-transit network

OTHER IDEAS
- Test Ethernet compressor 
- QoS in the LHCOPN. T0-T1=BE T1-T1=LBE
- Security anyone?
