* More types can be converted, some types still under development
* Need to validate
    * MCParticle works correctly
* LCIOInput algorithm: https://github.com/ihep-sft-group/LCIOInput
* EDM4hep installation on cvmfs broken
    * Starting today there will be automatic deployments
* Conversion from EDM4hep to LCIO?

## Progress and Discussion

### Podio

- Release v00-10
    - https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/releases/tag/v00-10
    - Need to fix version in cmake though
    - Make new tag v00-10-01

- Run/Event/Collection meta data
    - https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/issues/49
    - https://github.com/AIDASoft/podio/pull/71
    - Will evolve following tests of EDM4hep in FCCsw, for example
    - Store collection metadata once per file, as it should not change
    - Event metadata
        - Need to store different weights, pile up profile,
        - need survey of hh requirements

- Schema Evolution still an open issue
