+## Site Updates
+### ESRF (Marjolaine):
+Busy with 3-days visit from DLS people on Thursday
+- Spoke a lot about data management
+
+Alex spoke at ispyb collab meeting about putting their data into ICAT DB
+Working on generic sample tracking for all beamlines (merging ISPyB and ICAT sample tracking)
+Had corrupted Etherpad files, have removed from frontend and placed it on standby (deployed, but hidden from users)
+
+### HZB (Rolf):
+Cyber attack two weeks ago, "everything is down" (including email)
+- Lots of Windows PCs have been infected, encrypting files
+- No known instances of Linux machines being affected - confident about the data infrastructure
+  - But no way to check
+- Forensic experts are currently investigation, rumoured to be a matter of weeks before bringing things back
+
+Would be interested in meeting re: logbooks
+
+### ALBA (Nicolas)
+In process of implementing ICAT on beamline
+Desigining the metadata that should be uploaded to ICAT
+Also exploring the logbook (will need ICAT+ API)
+
+### Sirius (Allan)
+Not too much to report
+Deciding on data format for tomographic beamlines (already have it for other domain)
+Then will begin ingest, play around with project and try to understand the components
+Want to test:
+- Kubernetes (hope to have feedback by next meeting) - looking at ALBA's solution
+
+### ISIS
+Don't think Will Taylor has been able to work on this recently
+
+### DLS
+Effort migrating tape archive from castor to CTA
+Pre-prod installation for Payara6
+- Alan has been making releases for this
+
+
+### ICAT 6 / Payara 6 
+- Want to encourage adoption of Payara6 (for security concerns and to avoid having to support multiple versions)
+  - HZB: soonish
+  - ESRF: no plan yet, TBD
+  - Sirius: using 5
+  - ALBA: don't know
+- Deadline for moving? TBD via mailing list or in future meeting
+
+## Component Updates
+
+### python-icat
+More or less ready for 1.1 release:
+- Provides an IngestReader, which was implemented in HZB specific code before and is now moved into main python-icat codebase
+- Few minor fixes
+
+Q: Do we want a snapshot, or release outright (do not expect compatibility issues)?
+- DG-API pins the version, so we can test afterwards
+- Direct release is fine
+
+Expect tomorrow or next week
+
+### Logbooks (timestamped version)
+Interest from multiple facilities
+HZB working on making it suitable for multiple facilities
+- Ideally want to push changes upstream to ESRF
+    - Need to tweak things which are "hardcoded" to ESRF logic, this is the main effort currently, making them configurable
+- Using the DataHub verson, **not** the standalone version
+
+ESRF working on the DataPortal version too, one item of the plan is to make it standalone version (not clear when)
+
+### Notebooks (Etherpad version)
+STFC student has been adapting the permissions and work on endpoint, use DG-API or speak with ICAT server.
+Concerns of the corruptions of pads, under investigation.
+Other concern is suitability of Etherpad due to the lack of updates. There has been some activitiy in the repository.
+There are some alternatives:
+- Tiny MCE
+- Only office
+- https://github.com/xwiki-labs/cryptpad 
+- https://github.com/hedgedoc/hedgedoc
+
+Permissions would be configurable. 
+ESRF - they haven't had time to investigate a lot but scientists complain because when they entered images or tables, it wasn't working.
+
+### Upload
+
+### Sample tracking
+
+Question from Allan - information per sample might be different for each group wanting to implement sample tracking, is it better to implement a standalone solution?
+- ESRF have ICAT(+) (for all beamlines) and ispyb (for MX) and are trying to merge these
+- Have a configuration (processing plan) for each beamline
+- Interface retrieves config and displays the relevant column
+- Generic (configurable) solution
+
+Currently collating the information from the three interested groups, will  reach out in the future.
+
+## AOB
+Availability for July/August meetings?
