+# SIG/HPC meeting 2023-04-20
+
+## Attendees:
+
+    * Alan Marshall
+    * Nje
+    * Neil Hanlon
+    * Matt Bidwell
+    * David (NezSez)
+    * Jonathan Andreson
+    * Stack
+    * Balaji
+    * Sherif
+    * Gregorgy Kurzer
+    * David DeBonis
+
+
+## Quick round of introduction
+
+Everyone introduced themselves
+
+## Definition of stakeholders
+
+"still needs lots to clarification and classification since those are very wide terms"
+
+    * HPC End-user ?maybe?
+    * HPC Systems admins and engineers, to provide them with tools and know how to build HPC clusters using Rocky linux
+    * HPC Vendors, however the SIG has to be vendor neutral and agnostic
+
+## Discussions:
+
+Stack: we need to make sure that we are not redoing efforts that already done with other groups
+Greg engaged with Open HPC community and providing some core packages such as apptainer, mpi, openHPC
+
+Sherif: we need to have one hat to fit most of all but we can’t have one hat that fit all
+Stack: Feedback regarding Sherif’s idea that generic idea’s are not great idea and there is a bad performance
+Greg: we need to put building blocks in the this repo and will make life easiest and lower the barriers like Spack, slurm and easybuild
+
+Devid (NezSez): Some end users won’t understand / know anything about HPC and just needs to use the HPC, such as Maya or dynamic fluids
+
+Neil: some tools can be very easily an entry point for organization and teams to use HPC like jupiter playbook
+
+Stack: HPC is usually tuned to different needs, we can reach to other HPC that are running Rocky to ask them to promate rocky and establish a dialog to get an idea of what things that they are running into rocky
+
+Matt: HPC out of the box there are few projects that doing that and we don’t need to run in circles of what we are going to 
+
+Balaji: SIG for scientific application that focus on support the application and optimization, and HPC suggest the architecture  to reach max capabilities
+
+Greg: Agreeing with stack we don’t want to provide application that there are tools that do that
+
+
+Gregory Kurtzer (Chat):
+A simple strategy might be just to start assembling a list of packages we want to include as part of SIG/HPC, and be open minded as this list expands.
+
+Neil Hanlon(Chat):
+actually have to leave now, but, if we make some sort of toolkit, it has to be quite unopinionated... OpenStack-Ansible is a good example of being unopinionated about how you run your openstack cluster(s), but give you all the tools to customize and tune to your unique situation, too
+
+## Remarks:
+    * A point raised, should be rebuild some packages that area already in Epel or not and if we shall have a higher priority on our repo or not
+    * We need to think more about conflicts with other SIGs like luster and sig storage
+
+## Action items:
+
+    * List of applications “Thread on MM to post pkgs”
+    * Building blocks which are each pkg as a building block such as luster, openHPC, slurm, etc…
+    * Reach out to other communities “Greg”
+    * Reaching out for different sites that uses Rocky for HPC “Stack will ping few of them and others as well -Group effort-”
+    * Reaching out to hardware vendors
+    * Statistic / public registry for sites / HPC to add themselves if they want
+    * Meeting will be bi-weekly “Tantive Thursday 9:00PM UTC”
+    * Documentations
