[Halld-offline] Computing Review, December 16-17

[Mark Ito]

Folks,

At the November 4th SciComp meeting Graham Heyes showed slides 
describing/announcing a Computing Review, scheduled for December 16 and 
17. Hall D is one of the subjects of the review. I've already written to 
some of you about this. This is part of a series of computing and 
software reviews that we have had in years
past, going back to 12 GeV project days.

I've posted the canonical review wiki page 
<https://halldweb.jlab.org/wiki/index.php/Software_and_Computing_Review_6> 
to coordinate communication for this review. At the bottom of the page 
you will find a link to a Google Drive directory 
<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IbbvSLByJV6lhwIiYmX0krAv-O5zV15A?usp=sharing> 
where I have started to collect documents related to the review. 
Graham's slides, a previous email message from me to the "some of you" 
mentioned above, and an outline of what I think we should present, at 
least in the written material, are there now. The outline is also 
attached to this message as a PDF.

The outline is incomplete and needs input from others. Feel free to send 
me your thoughts. (At present, links are to a read-only document; stay 
tuned for instructions on how to edit, TBD. So send email for now.)

Finally, I hope to schedule a meeting this week to get the ball rolling. 
More on that to come. My thinking is to not call a general software-like 
meeting, but direct invitations to those directly involved. This 
approach runs the risk of missing some people interested in this 
activity. So please let me know if you are such a person or resemble 
such a person so that you get all of the information.
