Minutes

Present: JB, LM, DH, RNH, CW, KS, NB, SK, SV, PK

Apologies:

Build hardware

DH: It's coming, hopefully soon, but it's being chased

LM: No power supply in Durham yet

Excalibur Phase2

DH: Deadline is end of September, closed call.

LM: Is it really £8m/3 or is that figure 80%?

DH: <expletive>

DH: We are having diplomatic discussions with Fenics group for a joint bid, rather than compete. Current thinking is GPUs will be central to the bid, all the bits are there, but we need the plumbing.

LM: Will the other members of the GenX be going forward with phase 2?

DH: Not enough money, notionally it's 4 PostDocs total.

Master still failing

DH: Can we ignore it until the new build hardware is in?

Action RNH: PR to skip failing test: tests/demos/test_demos_run.py::test_demo_runs[qg_1layer_wave.py.rst]
