Agenda:

1) updates on physics cases and plots

2) draft writing section discussions
i) introductions
ii) science cases and performances
iii) Detector configuration and components
a) eSTAR mechanic drawing (John Scheblein)
  https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/eSTAR_mechanics_v0.pdf
very first version, need a few fixes,
TRD between ETOF and TPC in east;
BSO (crystal calorimeter) need to extend deeper into IR;
any other suggestions? colors?
this should be compared to what we have now:
  https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/STAR_geometry_2013.pdf

b) eSTAR geant geometry drawing (Katarina Gajdosova)
Jaro's student works on eSTAR geometry from geant Jason created:
https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/eSTAR4_geant_geometry.png
Looks good, need to zoom out more to see the FCS,
in geant geometry, we don't have forward tracking or BSO.
         news this morning with FCS

iv) simulations
v) R&D activities and future options
vi) collaboration evolution
