news and updates Room: https://cern.zoom.us/j/4745455693?pwd=em8ybklNZ2VTTTdXWXcvZjNIclErZz09 Matthew and Jenni are moving to new positions. Jennifer will stay with ePIC and TOF project. Simone is taking over Mathew's responsibility at UCSC. Andy cannot join any of our meetings. Do we create another one specifically on mechanics and support? Change the coordinator's time slot?

fibers and VTRx Room: https://cern.zoom.us/j/4745455693?pwd=em8ybklNZ2VTTTdXWXcvZjNIclErZz09 Uncertainty leads to the discrepancy. Are we all onboard on this: <<<<< final proposal<<<<< BTOF 144 staves with two-end readout, 2x144=288 FTOF 64x2 = 128 or 208 total this means we need VTRx and fiber: 288+208 = 496, Wei originally put in the request to Fernando for 400, it appears that 600 is required. Wei made this change to Fernando. But the original one was already submitted to project. We will see if this could be updated.

According to Elke, the TOF cannot be read out from both sides because there is no space available (services, etc.) Best regards, Fernando
