1.5  FCAL channel count
2    Reconstruction code schedule (all)
3    AOT


Future meeting suggestions (held over from last time):
- Coding standards
- Smart pointers
- BCAL beamtest simulations


============================================

Calibration Database
-----------------------

Nikolay has done some work here and posted adocument as well as
some source code to the DocDC as GlueX-doc-672.

Unfortunately, Nikolay was ill on the day of the meeting so his
presentation had to be postponed until next week.


FCAL Channel Count
---------------------
Matt reported that after some discussions with Richard, they
have agreed on a new channel count for the FCAL. It is
significant increase from ~2200 to ~2800 blocks.


Reconstruction code schedule
-----------------------

In the aftermath of the recent Lehman review and with anticipation
towards next summer's reviews, we need to maintain the core
reconstruction code as a high priority within the software
group as well as the collaboration at large. As a driver to
development, we will be having another software workshop this
fall. In trying not to conflict with the BCAL beam test, it
was suggested (by David) that we have the workshop
on November 9-11 (Thurs.- Sat.) Matt mentioned there was something
on his schedule about a physics meeting on those dates, but he
hadn't heard anything on it for a while so it was unclear if
that was still planned. David volunteered to send out an announcement
to solicit feedback from the collaboration on the dates.
