Agenda

Present: DH, RK, PB, CW, IM, KS

Apologies: JHC

Discussion-worthy issues/PR

We now have release.

Congratulations and thanks CW!

CW: Need PyPI owners for packages

If some of you can create PyPI accounts then I can add you to the PyPI projects that I currently maintain (increase the bus factor).

Also Zenodo, Docker, more?

Docker: DH and CW

Zenodo: CW probably has access?

Ask LM how zenodo works.

• Give access to JHC and KS for now

• Action JHC and KS: create an account, setup 2FA, etc.

• Irksome release?

RCK: Irksome-izing demos

Do we want to replace/remove existing non-Irksome demos? Naming conventions, etc.

The demo shows how to write custom time steppings, so probably it is not a good idea to completely replace them.

Instead put a cross-link for Irksome versions of the demos?

Merge PRs

Note that PRs put in this section should either be trivial or already have been reviewed. Discussion-worthy PRs should be separate agenda items.

• RCK/PB: UFL
• RCK/PB: Dual interp
• PB: Fix block sizes
