Happy hollydays and see you on January 5th :) - The solution chosen at the callback meeting is implemented, still working with Jérémie to finalize it. - Also working on a doc example to show how to make a custom estimator that supports callbacks. I'm making an example in `scikit-learn/miscellaneous`, mimicking `plot_metadata_routing.py`. - The progressbar callback has display issues in notebooks because it is done in a seperate thread. I'm trying to fix it but for now the only way I found is to have the progress bar in the main thread. - [name=Olivier] - Was off last week and broke my phone so I was truely offline for once.

[Remove CSS template substitution in estimators' HTML Display](https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/32839) - [name=François P.] - The callback meeting happened last Friday. It was decided that the callback context management (intialization and clean-up) will be achieved in the `_fit_context` decorator, using a seperate context manager. A public decorator doing just the callback context management without parameter validation will be exposed for 3rd party devs who want to use callbacks. - Made a doc PR to update the doc on the RandomState description, to make it match what's actually happening during cloning.
