I. Agenda:
1) Run10 status: Bill
2) Upgrade review discussions: Flemming/Helen
3) Decadal Plan: Nu
4) Co-convener(s) for Spin PWG: Nu
*--===================================================================--*
II. Brief Summary and/or Action Items:
0) Attendency: Flemming, Helen, Bedanga, Jamie, Nu
2) Flemming/Hellen: (a) MTD report has been sumitted to the management. Trigger rate is in discussion. MTD may competing with future detectors.
A proposal should be submitted to BNL management by the enf of January or earlier; (b) FHC: concerns about manpower issue. Spin PWG
strongly support the project. Go ahead to prepapre for run11; (c) pp2pp' : ned work to convince colaborators regarding the phsycis reach. Proponents should
continue to discuss with CAD about the design work needed for the upgrade. The time scal will be streched to the time when the MTD effort is
approaching to its end. (d) HLT: 2nd part of the proposal should be further developed. Tests shuld be made in run10 for future developements of
the project. Physics reaches should be better spelled out in the proposal. Expect the review report by the end of the month or earlier.
Trigger upgrade: Need discussion with Hank
GMT plan:R&D fund and plan to instal between FY10/11
Computing plan:

Brief Summary:
0) Attendency: Olga, Flemming, Jerome, Jamie, Nu, Bill, Helen
1) Run10 status: STAR is progressing smoothly. By Saturday, TPC laser will be ready; Magnet on over the weekend.
Run10 trigger: data volume for 62 GeV // PMD data:
CAD: beam in Blue. Thursday evening, beam will be in Yellow.
2) LPV news release: make a merged version and send it to Steve et al.
3) Publication policy seems not work at the moment. Should modify the policy?
PWG: ? Council representative at each group? Policy amendment?
Nu: (i) Ask STC chair to cc the nomination to each council representative; (ii) encourage PWG co-conveners
pay more attention on talks; (iii) Bedanga summarize the responsibilities at each stage of a STAR talk, start
tracking.
