Apologies:

DH: Meeting next week

Will go ahead JB to chair.

JB: PETSc and SLEPc forks need to be kept in sync

https://github.com/firedrakeproject/petsc/blob/firedrake/include/petscversion.h

https://github.com/firedrakeproject/slepc/blob/firedrake/include/slepcversion.h

This is resolved, but should be kept in mind for the future!

Merge PRs

DD: There are Matthew Scroggs PRs to adapt firedrake, tsfc and finat to the latest UFL element interface.

FInAT PR: 111 *...

tsfc PR: 302 *...

Firedrake PR: 3166 * Various changes requested. Need to ensure we do not break users code with these changes by changing the API without warning. There is also a mystery as to why some classes have (or maybe have not?) changed name.

Action item UZ: Review, check and merge upstream NGSolve changes required for UFL update.

DD: UFL upstream PR 46 Depends on above being merged ^^

DD: Adding __str__ method in SolverVarFormBlock. 3199. Need to do validation on ufl2unicode, specifically the RHS, so that errors are not raised.

PB: TransferManager: Re-injection of coefficients 3159 Merged.

RNH: #3204

CW: 3209
