- sub-wg web site and twiki:
     - http://w3.hepix.org/techwatch/network.html
     - https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/HEPIX/TechwatchNetwork/WebHome

Twiki works OK. Shawn and Rolf can edit.
We will keep everything in one page now. We'll create sub pages if it grows too much.

- preparation of upcoming meetings:
     - WLCG workshop https://indico.cern.ch/event/759388/timetable/#20190319.detailed
     - HEPiX Spring https://indico.cern.ch/event/765497/timetable/

Slides should be ready before the next plenary call of HTW, so we have a couple of weeks to prepare.
Shawn and Marian will produce the slides for NFV.
There is a ATLAS site jamboree at CERN on the 8th of March (https://indico.cern.ch/event/770307/). Shawn has been asked to present Networking for Tier2s. Shawn and Marian will make the presentation, anything from the sub-WG is welcome. Where do we want to put their attention to, what bandwidth they will need, which software features they will need in network devices.

Content for the WLCG presentation:
- Introduction to the sub-WG, mission (Edoardo)
- 400G, FEC (Edoardo)
- Situation of optics form factors and optical cables (Edoardo)

Shawn will create a shared deck on Google docs. He will send around the link

For the presentation at HEPiX we will have to cut down to 3-4 slides.

Rolf and Edoardo can present together at WLCG workshop

The talk in HEPiX will be given by one presenter that has not been identified yet.
Rolf and Shawn will be at HEPiX. Edoardo won't.

Next meeting: 17:00 on the 28th/3. We'll discuss by emails and call for a meeting next week, if necessary.
