* Jason:
* Me and Xing meeting people from paratera and Sun Qiang on Tuesday.
* Qiang still need to use AiiDAlab for his experiments.
* We can assistant people from paratera to deploy the AiiDAlab using the new approach. (We may also benifit from it to test deployment on Cloud resources rather than Azure.)
* Paratera has platform for online Seminar, they ask me and Qiang to give a 50 min talk about AiiDAlab.
* It can be a good way to get AiiDAlab expose to Chinese potential users.
* Add [slim image](https://github.com/aiidalab/aiidalab-docker-stack/pull/319) for "AiiDA only" tasks to aiidalab-docker-stack.
* The system user can be changed to `aiida` not just the `jovyan` from jupyter image.
* More slim (741MB v.s 1.9 GB)
* Can be replacement of [`aiida-prerequisites`](https://github.com/aiidateam/aiida-prerequisites). (Push to also `aiidateam` dockerhub)
* Potential issue if AWB version not bind to stack. The old docker stack has [aiidalab-widget-base version pinned in `requirements.txt`](https://github.com/aiidalab/aiidalab-docker-stack/blob/dff88d30a86e7f8182ac0390390407441f06c813/Dockerfile#L98). In new base image, it is not constaints anymore but as a general used widget package it required by different apps which might cause issue if user or app install the wrong AWB version and break the dependencies of other apps.
* Is Sasha the only people manage the email of [e-mail]? I think may be also Xing should access to it?

* Xing:
* The README of each repository in the AiIDAlab GitHub organization should feature up-to-date:
- [ ] Title
- [ ] Motivation / Context
- [ ] Installation / Usage instructions
- [ ] Primary maintainer
- [ ] How to contribute
- [ ] How to run tests
- [ ] License
- [ ] Acknowledgements

* Giovanni:

* Application to Fenix for 2023: Carlo will coordinate, deadline Nov 7th?
* We need to have a more high-level discussion on how much we want to have AiiDAlab be used directly by experimentalists
* QE App: current status, 2.0 support, number of bands, ...

* Dou:

* A PR to allow custom colors for all bandstructure (parameters: bands_color)
* https://github.com/osscar-org/widget-bandsplot/pull/37

* Both bandstructure and DOS datas are aligned to Fermi level
* Should we also user to input or modify Fermi levels?

* Add Junfeng and Carlo for the discussion of the user cases (suggested by Giovanni)
