New experimental data
i) List of topics to discuss:
- Which datasets do we want to include for NNPDF4.0 and in which order?
- Make list of experiments and prioritize them
- In particular, what LHC measurements at 13 TeV can/should include?
- New processes: direct photons, single top, D mesons, etc
ii) Joint brainstorming
iii) Define milestones
iv) Agree on short term tasks and who does what

Theory issues
i) List of topics to discuss:
- MHOU: implementation of scale variation
- MHOU: implementation of the extra uncertainty on the fit and way to estimate it
- Further uses and dissemination of fits with scale variation
- Inclusion of EW corrections (including photon-induced)
- Approximate N3LO
ii) Joint brainstorming
iii) Define milestones
iv) Agree on short term tasks and who does what

Methodological improvements
i) List of topics to discuss:
- Improved minimization: CMA-ES validation
- Improved param.: fitting preprocessing, testing quadratic NNs
- How we can make positivity work
- Closure tests revisited?
ii) Joint brainstorming
iii) Define milestones

- Polarized PDFs
- Fragmentation functions
- Nuclear PDFs
- Fits with resummation (large-x, small-x, joint)
ii) Joint brainstorming
