## Agenda

_Add items to discuss below to build the agenda for the meeting. Include your name so we know who to give the floor to. Try to give an estimate of how long you expect the discussion will take so we can effectively manage time. (We know this is hard, just do your best!) If we receive a lot of agenda points, we may use breakout rooms to facilitate parallel disussion in order to get through as many points as possible._

* Prep for HubDash
* Looking over the applications
* Folks who want to work on onboarding documentation
* Put things into Zulip for the asynch folks
* Thinking about the mission, vision, values as a primarily asynch "breakout" that folks can take a look at in between or during HubDash if they only have a few minutes.
* Deployers forum idea (a couple of times a year)
* updates
* discussion on what the deployers of JH need
* We did run a mini workshop on HPCs and JH with half a dozen - a few presentations. Doing things like that on a semi regular basis is a low stakes, low resources way of doing this.
* Reflections on the User Workshop
*
*
