• Mikhail was traveling and was not present at the meeting, but he sent Hovanes a message with a very brief status update. Al detectors that KFM needs are uninstalled and prepared for packing (tracker is packed). The moving company wants to pack everything by their own crew to be sure that all pieces are safe. Nothing is shipped yet, since the paperwork is not complete.

• Sean discussed the need for photon beam to calibrate the RF-signal, GlueX detector timing, and GlueX calorimeters.
• Sean presented kinematics of photons that would be observed in the final states for the reactions of interest to KLF. Most of the channels seem to produce
