** Carl will setup a meting with Hall-B to discuss if the suggested change will affect them ( note that Hall-B is not yet switched using the EVIO-6 as their off-line data format).
** Alexandre C. may or may not have taken a GEM detector from the INDRA lab for testing with a source.  
 
*** Dave A. believes at least one GEM will stay in the INDRA lab and can be used for testing
