1. 2020 ATLAS requirements released
2. Follow-up workshop for WBS 2.3 area, tbd. 
3. Tier2 computing review requested by management, still being organized.  
4. Completing FY18 equipment purchases.  Plan on purchase of k8s edge node for facility evolution (see below, and http://bit.ly/facility-evolution). 
5. OSG-LHC, part of IRIS-HEP, now official.  Brian Lin will continue to be our primary point of contact.  More details of what's ahead as the OSG and IRIS-HEP are making plans for the next 18 months.
6. Facility evolution - part of our plan is to create a k8s platform across the US ATLAS computing facility, which will require sites to procure an edge node.  We can leverage SLATE for the installation and configuration of k8s into a federation that supports the ATLAS virtual organization.  Information about recommended hardware is at http://slateci.io/docs/slate-hardware/.  The 'Big node' is all that is needed ($12,782.59).
