    • The winter event may be pushed out to Feb/March 2020, instead of Dec/Jan, as usual. The TSC will need to decide whether to participate.

      • The "decision process" question was raised by Jack Morgan

    • David McBride  asked how to start new project? what is the plan? Will CNTT write a proposal? Staffing? 
      • Mark C clarified that we may need more discussion on that, e.g. resources.
