Administrative tasks

• Still delayed.
• We're probably not getting together in person anytime soon.
  • So we'll send around a doodle to have time to talk about our rules.
  • Reflect the way we worked several years ago, but not really right now.
• we're to review the admin steering committee in July (per our rules):
  • https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/wiki/Administrative-rules#administrative-steering-committee-asc
• we're to review the technical steering committee in July (per our rules):
  • https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/wiki/Administrative-rules#technical-steering-committees
• We should also review all the OMPI github, slack, and coverity members during the month of July.
  • Jeff will kick that off sometime this week or next week.
• In the call we mentioned this, but no real discussion.

Face-to-face

• Wiki for face to face: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/wiki/Meeting-2022
  • Might be better to do a half-day/day-long virtual working session.
    • Due to company's travel policies, and convenience.
    • Could do administrative tasks here too.

Super Computing?

• Open MPI missed submitting request for BoF this year.
• MPI Forum will be presenting.
