1. News

Marco announced that, as from the next meeting, he will look for "volunteers" to write the minutes.

John proposed that once a month the agenda should be constructed in such a way as to make it attractive for collaborators not based at CERN to participate. One could imagine setting up a video conference for this monthly meeting - Marco proposed that the possibility of setting up a video-conferencing room for LHCb should be discussed at a future infrastructure meeting.


2. Status of event model interface to SICB C++ classes (P.Binko)

Pavel described the current status of the software to access the SICB banks from C++ (see slides .ppt, .ps ). The following points were raised in the discussion that followed:


3. How to get started with SICB C++ classes (M.Cattaneo)

Marco showed where to find the code and how to get started. He will write a recipe based on his slides (.ppt, .ps ) which will evolve with time..
