    • input (PMs + overview of activity) needed from all partners involved in WP1+WP5
      • ideally directly in the progress report drafts
    • OK for RUG, SURF, HPCNow!, UB
    • still missing for UGent, UiB

  • deliverables due in M12

    • 31 Dec 2023 is hard deadline for final version of these deliverables
    • ballpark: ~10 pages per deliverable (shorter is better)
    • executive summary is important
      • 1-2 pages
      • reasonable overview of what's in the report

      • complete draft by RUG (Bob), review by UGent (Kenneth) + Alan
    • D1.2 [SURF, report, issue, overleaf]: Plan for the design of a portable test suite
      • complete draft by SURF (Caspar), review by UGent (Lara) + Alan
      • for software releases, there should also be a DOI
    • D5.1 [UiB, other, issue, overleaf]: Community contribution policy & Github App
      • type "OTHER" => contrib policy in EESSI docs + bot GitHub App release in GitHub
        • 2-3 pager document along with software release
        • executive summary (half-page)?
        • docs can be included as appendix as PDF
        • for software releases, there should also be a DOI
      • complete draft by UiB (Thomas), review by UGent (Kenneth) + Alan
    • D5.2 [UGent, other / report?, issue, overleaf]: Support portal
    • D6.1 [UB - Alan] Guidelines for Community Outreach, Education, and Training
      • complete draft by Alan, review by Caspar
      • Alan will set up Overleaf project for this
    • D8.4 [NIC - Neja] Risk management Report
      • Neja + Alan (?)
      • big risk is money (national co-funding by Italy, Slovenia) and hires (JSC + scientific partners, NIC (Neja))
      • late-ish kickoff
      • late-ish hires: May (UGent), ??? (SURF), ??? (RUG)

  • Milestones due M12

    • Milestone 2 [SURF]: "Shared software stack support for at least 1 accelerator". Means of verification: List of required dependency packages defined by WPs 2-4 included in published software stack (Table 3? Or Table 12?).
      • interpretation is unclear here...
      • ESSPResSo and/or LAMMPS with GPU support included is sufficient (Alan)
        • first step is getting CUDA samples working in EESSI (ideally in Oct)
      • how do we need to report on milestones?!
        • in periodic report for 1st period M1-M12
          • due early Feb'24, before project review meeting
        • per task report for each work package
        • cross-ref for deliverables for tasks being wrapped up in M12
    • Milestone 8 [NIC]: Applications developed by CoE (Table 11) available to users of EuroHPC JU systems via automated deployment platform, including documentation for users, required software stack, automated testing and quality checks
      • How is this due M12?!
      • Seems like this is a mistake in List of Milestones
      • Alan: was injected during negotiation
      • this exact same milestone is there for all CoE's
      • we can defend this early with what we have in place

  • overview of MultiXscale planning
