Hi Alessandra,
Thanks for the correction. I will add the line to the minutes. Maarten did read the minutes and noted only a couple of other minor corrections - difficult to spot everything and sometimes interpretations of the same thing are different. There is an EVO recording capability so we could consider adding audio to the meeting material if it would help us…. minute writing has demonstrated various styles amongst us - from a few bullets to epics!
All.
If anyone else has comments or corrections, please let me know.
Many thanks,
Jeremy

He added the test queues are a valuable tool that we should use where available (atlas for example) and try to get other experiments to use them if conditions have changed.
