Agenda

There are no pre-planned agenda items: this meeting is just for Q&A

• Davide: is it possible to run spack build on two different nodes in the tree?
  • Yes, you can invoke spack install in parallel, e.g. spack install && spack install
  • e.g. spack env depfile (to generate a makefile) and then make -j<number>
• Davide: when is next release
  • Max: Just released 0.21.1 last Monday
  • Targeting next minor release for end of February
    • Overall minor releases every few months
  • Traditionally doing major releases for ISC (May) and SC (November)
  • Milestones for releases are at https://github.com/spack/spack/milestones
