Agenda

Present:

Apologies:

CW: assign for weighted sums

https://github.com/firedrakeproject/firedrake/pull/2562 is very nearly done. Currently the only failures are in pyadjoint (https://github.com/dolfin-adjoint/pyadjoint/pull/93) where assign in Firedrake now fails but switching to interpolate breaks FEnICs. What should I do?

RNH: Issue 2595

The UFL update to fenics main made certain things not work any more and is currently breaking Gusto

JB: GC fix landing soon

Need to look over "abuse of comms" PR in PyOP2 and GC fix in Firedrake.

JB: Python 3.11 is here

MacOS users, please create me some VTK wheels! We are still waiting for an mpi4py wheel before this can be merged 🙁.
