Coordination Meeting 2024 #349
Description
Like #255 but for 2024 meeting, since I think collecting ideas on an issue had been pretty successful for the 2023 meeting.

@WilliamJamieson and @nstarman might propose a topic related to array API, though this depends on how stable the array API is by the time this meeting happens. Also see:

Suggestion for topic, coming out of the dev-telecon: Discussion of Science platforms (e.g. SciServer, ...) Do we recommend any? Do we want to maintain our own at some point? Do we want to test any? Do we need to do anything to make it work better? Or make it work less (evil_grin)?

@hamogu can provide a debrief on how that contracting work initiative has worked out. By this meeting, both contracts with Clément and Mridul would have ended. Also see:
(If this counts as "funded projects" in #349 (comment) , then feel free to resolve this comment as duplicate. I was not sure. Thanks!)

Hi! I've created and am continuing to refine a GPT for Astronomy in Python using the Astropy ecosystem. I've trained it on (in order of priority) Astropy, the coordinated packages, and all affiliate packages. Here's the link if you want to try it out https://chat.openai.com/g/g-oucCOdFuw-astronomy-python-copilot. Let me know if there are any improvements you'd like to see!

If there is still no consensus on this APE 0 term limit proposal by the meeting, I say we just put it to a vote at the Coordination Meeting and be done with it. Though I think as per policy, all the 5 current CoCo members are not allowed to

Oh no, so we just lost an hour from each day on the proposed agenda?
Should we start earlier (for those in-person)?(Nope, nvm... opens at 9)pllim commentedon May 14, 2024
Is there a place with food and wifi for evening hacking? (Usually I think this is when "plane hacks" happen? 😆 )

We are within walking distance of central Utrecht. There are many, many options. Because most of the nice places are small and old, and because it will be summer, they tend to be cramped; fine for a small group, but it may be challenging to find a spot where ~10 people can sit together, specially if they want space to be able to look at laptops etc.

A note that I will present the finance committee update (and happy to run the session). I see that 3:15 - 5:30 is allocated to finance with a few broad goals. How long should the update be?
jdswinbank commentedon May 14, 2024
There are many places with food and wifi. And beer. I can't speak to how crowded they'll be on a June evening, but I'm sure we'll find somewhere nice.
https://dutchreview.com/expat/places-to-work-or-study-utrecht/ might be a good place to start.

I don't see any Princess Bride screening scheduled (#349 (comment)). Should we do it over one of the lunches? Is there DVD playing capability in the lunch area?
jdswinbank commentedon May 17, 2024
A reminder to everybody who hasn't yet registered to please do so at https://forms.gle/3RpzjP8a83HfYLBj6, especially if you will be attending in person.

Agenda is finalized. Topics that didn't make it to main agenda are added to "Possible breakout/hack/sprint topics". Since we no longer accept new suggestions at this point, I am closing this issue. See you soon!
mhvk commentedon Jun 6, 2024
Just wondering: the agenda states a trip possibly on Thursday June 13. This should be June 14 as per the e-mail for sign-up for that, no?
pllim commentedon Jun 7, 2024
The trip was moved up to June 13 (Thurs)

@mhvk , I keep forgetting you are not on Slack and might have missed some discussions. I updated the meeting wiki. Please reach out if you have questions or concerns.
mhvk commentedon Jun 7, 2024
OK, good to know. I've contacted John to let him know that means my partner won't be able to join the trip (nor perhaps me, depending on when we return to Utrecht).
