[Halld-pid-upgrade] FDIRC Working Meetings

[Matthew Shepherd]

Lubomir and Curtis,

If there are developments in cluster counting, I would prefer they be discussed at the PID upgrade meeting.  I would like to hear about them (and I can't if we're having a working group meting on Thursdays).  

The problem is not the duration of the meeting but the frequency of a biweekly meeting is not sufficient for the task at hand.  The off-week sees the time slot occupied by the installation meeting, so we moved to Thursday, knowing that there is a tracking meeting, but thinking the overlap of the small group working on the proposal and the tracking group was zero.

Matt

That is, we envision a small group meeting with a focus on the design document.  We propose to have our first meeting on October 10.  If you would like to attend this series of meetings and Thursday at 1:30 does not work for you, please let me know so we can consider adjusting the schedule.
