Just wanted to keep you all in the loop about what was discussed in the BTeam meting today.

<li style=""><font color="#000000" face="Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">As of now we still hope to be able to do the spin dance this weekend (Saturday). </font></li><li style=""><font color="#000000" face="Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"> If the measurement is delayed till Sunday, does it make more sense to wait until Monday afternoon to do this, when Hall C can participate? If we are late, then we could launch
into the RF stress test, or launch into setting up to the respective halls and then do the RF stress test to Hall C Monday afternoon, TBD.</font></li><ol style="list-style: lower-alpha;">
<li style="">Note: RF Optimization<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> into Hall C will likely get us slightly less beam loaded current into the RF system, than full current to Hall A at 5th pass. </span></li><li style=""><font color="#000000" face="Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Also to note: The point of the RF Optimization is an attempt to change the way we do business. In years past, we have just done the RF Optimization at the expense of Physics, ALL
experiments suffer. By doing the optimization up front, hopefully will put CEBAF in a better position for Physics (at the desired currents), and more acceptable beam in use (ABU) when we get to the point of ramping the current to the halls. </font></li></ol>

<font color="#000000" face="Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style=""><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit;">I just want people to be thinking about this discussion for tomorrow.
We should iron out what we want to do tomorrow, because changing the plan over a holiday will be a bad idea. Open questions are: What is the support for RF Optimization? What is the
</span>support<span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit;"> for spin dance? What is the support to even finish ORFP?</span></font></div>

<div style=""><font color="#000000" face="Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style=""><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-weight: inherit;"> I worry that we will have delays and trouble because
of the Holiday, and that support for any of the above will be scarce. </span></font></div>
