Summary:
The meeting focused on the transition to VTRX plus boards and the implications for readout, with Alexandre expressing uncertainty about integrating new detectors and planning to consult Fernando. Charles updated on the successful installation of end rings at Stony Brook, while Sushrut reported positive results from the curved co-bonding process for the mirror and outlined design modifications and shipping plans. Alex raised concerns about the thermal warping of mirrors and confirmed the next general meeting and transcription responsibilities.
