Could re-add experiment logos, but I think it might look cluttered… (could make them tiny, of course)
Indico
Sudhir to clone agenda
Kilian: Add to HSF training Schools list
SC Tutors
Sudhir has sent an email to SC
Tuesday will be very basic, optional
Friday material to be reviewed
Coffee
EP-SFT agreed to sponsor the coffee breaks this time round (thanks Pere!)
Co-organised with openlab and SIDIS
Most planning needed for first ”general” day
Later sessions for expert groups, we have 4 groups confirmed: SFT team for simulation, CMS with Patatrack, ATLAS with Acts tracking, ALICE with barrel reco software
1 last slot offered to LHCb, TBC
Generator WG colleagues were asking about introductions to programming on GPUs, as this is something that they are very interested in
Graeme not aware of anything (but important that we do the whole pyramid!), but how can we help?
openlab contacts useful?
Graeme will contact Maria
LPC FNAL did a training a while ago
Mike Sokoloff was trying to organise something for GPU training
Sudhir to contact Mike
New events into HSF lists:
Section on editing the HSF website has been updated: https://hepsoftwarefoundation.org/howto-website.html, specifically there are instructions on how to add new training events now
(Kilian: Could we simplify the templates? Body content usually just duplicates indico link and title)
There is a long standing PR from Guillermo improving training school handling, but it causes strange errors when building the site
Anyone who knows Jekyll/Liquid to help?
Meeting every week?
Sam, Sudhir and Kilian to decide this
Kilian: Ok with both. Short weekly meetings might be good to keep everyone busy, but if there’s not much to do...
Meeting minutes
Can be put into Indico or put on HSF website (latter is bit more work though)
C++ Training
Was covered last year at the ASTERICS-OBELICS International School (Astroparticle)
