Hello everyone,

It would be great if we can kick off the SIG.

1. Which day and time would be good for the meetings in #fedora-meeting

The available times are here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/FedoraMeetingChannel

I'm free most days after about 14:00 or 15:00UTC.

2. Let's come up with an initial agenda.

Defining what should be in a reasonably complete HPC Comps group Define a complete component list Pick which of those components should be default vs. optional Identify packages not yet in Fedora that are on the list and allow people to sign up to get them through a review process and in Fedora Identify any shortcomings in upstream standards for HPC packages (there's a lot here, eg. the upstream MPI groups don't have the faintest clue on how to get together and create a standard installation layout or anything else) Where upstream has no clue about doing things in a standard way, at least work to create one inside the framework of Fedora and attempt to push it to upstream if they are receptive of the idea. Identify packages in Fedora that need updating/changing to meet said standards Allow people to sign up to work those changes if the package maintainer is unable to do so

Something along those lines ought to get things started.
